Making A Home Attractive With Wooden Table Lamps
If you want to create a traditional or country style look in your home, one of the appropriate decorative items that you can include is a wooden table lamp. There are different styles that you can choose from depending on the color, area and accent that you need for your room. Wooden table lamps can also be a match to modern style homes with some wooden and traditional touch in one corner or area. With some creativity, you can always make a room look great with wooden table lamps. You just have to match it with the right table and you can create an impression of elegance and style very easily.
The more appropriate use of wooden lamps is for making the room a more relaxing place to stay. With an elegant petite decorative fountain beside it, you can get the soothing feeling that you may be looking for after a stressful day at work. Whether you have a butternut, oak, cherry, walnut, maple or red-birch, your wooden table lamp can get the needed attention if you will put it in a strategic location in the room and make it stand on an attractive and matching table. The type of lamp can be based on your style or room motif. The darker type is best for the more traditional and antique theme while the light-colored wood can match a semi-modern look.
In terms of maintenance, wooden table lamps are easier to clean with dust not very visible compared to ceramic lamps. Unlike brass lamps, wooden lamps will not fade very easily. There is no special maintenance needed for the color. Everything is normal and a daily wiping off of dust can be enough maintenance and your wooden table lamp will serve you for many years.
Breakage will never be a problem with wooden table lamps compared to the ceramic ones. Wooden lamps can be with you for your lifetime and when the color or varnish fades, you can easily re-varnish and you have a brand new lamp again. This is the advantage of having wood as a decorative item in your home.
If you don’t have a wooden lamp, it is easy to build one. There are many do-it-yourself materials on the Internet that you can use as a reference. You can choose specific styles and color that will be best to match your home theme. You can make this task a family project and when done, it will be a good conversation piece for your guests. You can even build wooden lamps to give as gifts during special occasions.
The cost of wooden table lamps always depends on the kind of wood that you will be using. You can buy good ones in second-hand stores or antique shops and with some re-varnishing or refurbishing, they can look brand new. There will always be a good spot for a nice lamp on a nice table in your room. You can use it as a decor or for creating a nice ambiance during a romantic evening. You can even use it for simple task lighting in your bedroom. Whatever is the purpose, you will find that your wooden table lamp can serve you well and you will be pleased to see it around your home.
