can be wonderful addition to your dining room. Whether you are
looking to add a little something to your dining room or you are
redecorating the whole house, a chandelier can dramatically
change the look of the area its installed in a variety of
wonderful ways.
First and foremost a chandelier is a light source and you can
count on it to bathe your dining are in a very specific sort of
light. Lamps and simple ceiling lights are often harsh or murky
due to their shades, but with a chandelier, you have glass
shades that come in a variety of different thicknesses and that
can diffuse your light in a number of different ways. The first
thing to think about is where the light will be directed. If you
are only interested in one focal point for the room you may want
to go with a more traditional chandelier that will just keep the
light focused on one area. For more variety, however, there are
plenty of chandelier that can be adjusted to provide some
variety in where the light is pointed. Some chandeliers will
offer the best of both worlds and between their multiple bulbs
and the refraction ability the glass, will be able to bathe your
dining room in a warm light.
More than just being lights however, chandeliers are wonderful
decorative objects, bringing class and art to a room in an
unobtrusive manner. There are many different effects you can
convey with a chandelier. For instance, you can go with a
extremely traditional one, whether it is a beautifully graceful
and attractive cut glass chandelier with a floral design, or you
can try a more modern feel when you look for a chandelier that
is made of graduated glass chimes. There are thousands of
different models of chandeliers and whatever decorating plan you
are interested in, you can find one that suits you.
Chandeliers also fit into smaller spaces. Far from being the
large glass affairs that you might think they are, many modern
chandeliers are wide rather than tall, making them perfect even
for a ceiling that isn't ten feet tall. They won't impede on
your walking area the way a floor lamp will and they'll add a
lovely decorative touch to your dining room.
When a guest wanders into the room, depending on the layout,
their eyes are usually drawn up, and a chandelier is a charming
thing to have draw conversation to! You don't have to stick with
just clear glass, either; many chandeliers are made with stained
glass, giving your dining room a wonderful Art Deco or Art
Nouveau style. You can play this up in many ways, or you can let
the chandelier speak for itself and leave the rest of the room
bare. Either way, you can make a striking statement with both
your lighting and your chandelier If you are looking to redo
your dining room, don't be restricted to the chairs and table.
Look up and think about the space you could fill with a
chandelier and decide exactly what sort of light you want in
your space!
