Home Decoration 101

I have come to believe after decades of designing different looks for my home that the most important accents are always those that emit light. The lighting in a room frames the other objects and gives those forms softness. Or they can do the exact opposite, creating harsh edges.

So even if your home decorations are great, if the lighting is terrible then that will be the effect felt in the room. Good indoor lighting is the equivalent of a good frame for a portrait. It is everything and nothing at the same time. When selecting your lighting, don’t neglect the opportunity to have the fixture itself be a furnishing. From chandeliers to a Tiffany style torchiere, there are lighting solutions to complement any décor.


Tiffany Style Lamps and all the Wonderful Colors

Tiffany Style Lamps.  They are WONDERFUL, GORGEOUS, Colorful, amazing, unusual, unique.  I could go on and on.  I love to look at them, own them, talk  about them, and even sell them.   There is one thing that should be mentioned  when you go to buy a Tiffany style lamp.  Be flexible when it comes to colors.

All those colors in a lamp can vary and be many shades different than in the picture. This does not mean the Lamp is less beautiful.  There can be  more colors than you realize, that maybe the picture does not even pick up.  A good idea is to read the description,  IF , they have one.  Not all suppliers have color descriptions.   Another site might  offer the primary colors.   Great!  Other colors could be present as well in smaller degrees.   Some times they get the primary colors WRONG.  This is unfortunate, but true.  I had a company put pinks down as a primary color, but the lamp was clearly orange, not pink.  Returning a lamp can cost you 20 to 30 percent restocking fees, so take your time and be flexible.

Never set your self up and try to match exact colors.  Allowing your self some freedom on the colors and shades of colors will help  you to enjoy your shopping experience and purchase the right Tiffany Style  Lamp or Window Panel for your home.   The bottom line is that they are just so BEAUTIFUL in any color.  They are worth a little color risk.  Remember they are all pieces of art.

It is a fun and pampered feeling when you walk into an office and everything seems so feminine and frilly.  The surrounding make you feel cozy and girlie.  You enjoy your visit, the staff and the atmosphere.   I have been in a couple of pretty lady like offices with almost a feminine boutique atmosphere.  I  liked it.  A feminine room can be bold reds or pinks and blacks,  or  warm colors  of pinks, creams, lavenders, soft greens .  Furniture can really very with taste and budget.

Lamps are another story.   A Tiffany Style Table Lamp could add so much feminine charm and be easier on the budget than you think.   Tiffany Style Floor Lamps and Tiffany Style Table Lamps are gorgeous and elegant.  Add a stunning final touch to your office with the many feminine styles there are  to choose from with Tiffany Style Lighting.


The Feminine side of Tiffany Style Wisteria Lamps

Tiffany Style Wisteria Table Lamps and Floor Lamps have this lovely feminine appeal.   They are one of the classic Tiffany Style designs of the late eighteen hundreds and have  somewhat of a frilly and fancy look to them.   These lamps give  me a vision of running around in a long flowing robe with soft pink feathers on the edges of my robe, a pomegranate martini in my left hand, as I walk  around the room and turn on all of my Wisteria Lamps.

Yes well, the point is that I think  Tiffany Style Wisteria Lamps whether they are Floor Lamps or Table Lamps are full of Elegance and Charm.  They have been for the past 100 years, and will be for at least a 100 more.

Wisteria.   What a lovely sound , not to mention they are gorgeous trees if you have ever seen a giant one in bloom.   In the late 1800’s Louis Comfort Tiffany and his talented employees designed one of the most popular Tiffany Style Table Lamps of yesterday and today.  Named after the tree, came the  Wisteria Lamp fashioned to resemble the graceful lines  and drape of the dreamy Wisteria tree.

Tiffany Style Wisteria Lamps are gorgeous and top of my list of favorites.They are available in Table Style Lamps as well as  Floor Lamps.   Add a timeless and stunning flair to your Living Room , Bedroom, or den.   Just Gorgeous.


Time to CHANGE that Lamp

Look around.   In the mood to update a little.   One of my favorite things to do.  There is always  a little change here and there to do around the home.  A new rug, table, vase,  chair, LAMP.   I have the budget of a piece meal.   One item at a time.   Each time I buy a little something to add interest to a room,  I feel so talented.   It always seems like a small new  item or change,  made such a BIG new difference.

Tiffany Style Lighting is a rather small change, that could make a stunning difference.  Take a look at the lamp you already have, and compare it to the beauty and elegance a Tiffany Style Table Lamp, or a Tiffany Style Floor Lamp.  It may not be new furniture that you think you need.   It might be time to think about a gorgeous new Tiffany Style Lamp.

This is for you.  You know, the one with all the harvest gold and brown furniture and those beautiful beige or taupe walls.  All things neutral,  browns and black.  Lets see,  here’s one, a  sofa and chairs without a speck of a pattern on them, plain jane all the way.

Oh my goodness.   Add some color to that room.  Break out of the safe , plain and neutrals and place  a stunning splash of color in  your Living Room or Bedroom with  some eye candy like  a Tiffany Style Floor Lamp or Tiffany Style Table Lamp . Treat yourself and your eyes with color and Elegance.


A Tiffany Style Lamp for Everyone

It is no secret that Tiffany Style Lamps are popular and the popularity gets stronger and stronger.  It is a wonderful truth.  Truly,  I do not know a single person who does not like Tiffany Style Lamps whether they are Wisterias, Dragonfly, Geometric,  floor lamps, table lamps or hanging. When talking with others,  everyone has a favorite of their own.  Not everyone who like them, owns a Tiffany Style Lamp in their home and yet they are so affordable now days.

Louis Comfort Tiffany would be so proud about  the incredible art that he started in the late 1800’s,  that is still so well liked and maybe someday there will be at least one in everyone’s home.  The designers are making and designing such pretty Tiffany Style Table Lamps, Floor Lamps and hanging Lamps that I personally would collect them for their uniqueness and different colors and styles, if the thought and act was not ridiculous.  Its a good thing that you only need one or two lamps per room, or I would own 100 of them.  What style is your favorite Tiffany Style Lamp?


A Tiffany Style Lamp for Tiffany

This is for fun and serious both.   The examples are true stories.    I knew a family with the last name of Heart.   Guess what was all through their house.  HEARTS.   I worked with a girl named Amanda Rose.   Can you guess what her favorite fragrance and designs were.    ROSES.   I know a doll collector who collects dolls and would without thinking buy a doll that had her same first name.   My brother is going to kill me for this one, but, when he was a young boy, we called him chub.   Years ago, when his  children were infants , the only wipes he would use were CHUBS.

Where  am I going with these humorous little tid bits.   If my name was Tiffany, no  REALLY, if it was,   I would no doubt own at least  ” ONE”   Tiffany Style Lamp .    And if I had a daughter named Tiffany,  I am the kind of mom who would  probably of bought her a Tiffany Style Table Lamp or a Tiffany Style Floor Lamp for her room.   Give me a shout out if your name is Tiffany and you own a Tiffany Style Lamp !!!!


Tiffany Style Torchiere Lamp

Tiffany Style Torchiere’s , in English, are Tiffany Style Torch design floor lamps. With many many different designs to choose from, these are lovely additions to the many selections of Tiffany Style Floor Lamps.

A Tiffany Style Torchiere Lamp averages about 72 inches tall.   These lamps are deceiving in a photo, they looks small.  The actual size of the Torch piece can vary anywhere from 14 to 20 inches wide, depending on the style,  and can be 14, 15,  up 20 inches  deep.  They usually have a step on switch and require a 60 watt bulb.
