There’re some instructions for selecting bedroom lamp.

The Height of Bedroom Lamps

May 29, 2011 Category :Lighting Wiki 0

Two days ago, I have introduced to you how to install bedroom lamps. Do you remember? Well, we should not only pay attention to the installation of bedroom lamps, but also attach importance to the height of bedroom lamps.

When you are redecorating your bedroom, you are usually going for an overall look or feel to the room. An important factor to consider in decorating any room is scale. You don’t want to overwhelm the room with furniture that is too large, and you don’t want furniture so small that it looks out of place.

Headboards are the focal point of a bedroom. They can be tall and majestic or short and sleek. Whatever style of headboard you choose, it will set the stage for the rest of your decorating in the room. Consider the size of the room before purchasing a tall headboard. A tall headboard can instantly overwhelm a room and make it feel even smaller. Choose a headboard in the style you want, but choose one that is well-proportioned for the rest of the room. If you have high ceilings, then you can choose a taller headboard.

For a bed with a tall and ornate headboard, a tall, ornate lamp will work well. It will complement the size of the headboard and the décor of the room. If your bed is modern in style and has a sleek headboard, you may want to choose an equally sleek and unadorned lamp. Any size lamp will work well with this style, as long as the decoration on the lamp itself is kept to a minimum.

The proportion of the lamp should match the table. The lamp and the table should complement each other in size as well as style. If you choose to go with a wall lamp, then it should be positioned so that it is easily accessible from a seated position in the bed. For a floor lamp, the top of the lampshade should ideally be no more than 48 inches from the top of the mattress. For any lamp that is going to be used from the bed, it’s important that it be easily accessible from the bed itself.

Every detail is important. When you select a bedroom lamp, you should not only concern about its price, style, color and shape, but also its height.

How to Install Bedroom Lamps

May 27, 2011 Category :Lighting Wiki 0

A suitable bedroom lamp can make your bedroom more beautiful and make you more enjoyable. We have different tastes of bedroom lamps but we do have similar methods of installing bedroom lamps. However, do you know how to install bedroom lamps?

Are you confused about adding a little lighting to your bedroom? You generally have three options: a floor lamp, a table lamp and a ceiling lamp. The first two are no-brainers; you plug in the lamp and you’re finished. But the latter–the ceiling lamp–can be a bit trickier. What’s the best way, after all, to hang a bedroom lamp? While there’s certainly more to it than simply plugging it in, it needn’t be a headache. As long as there’s a ceiling box in the room, you can do it.

Run the cord through the following lamp components, in this order: first, the threaded nut, second, the ceiling cover, third, the threaded connector, and fourth, the bracket. Most, probably all, of these lamp components are typically included together when you purchase the lamp itself. If not, you can obtain them separately at any hardware store.

Wire the lamp. This involves connecting two wires, usually a white wire and a black wire. There should be a white and a black wire in the ceiling box, and these correspond to a white and black wire connected to the lamp. Connect the white wire from the lamp with the white wire in the ceiling box, then connect two black wires the same way.

Attach a bracket to the ceiling box. Use screws to accomplish this. Attach the threaded connector to the bracket. Typically the threaded connector simply screws right in.

Attach the ceiling cover to the threaded connector and bracket. It should cover both of these–and it should conceal the ceiling box apparatus as well. Generally, ceiling covers are either twist-on or attached via screws.

Follow the steps abovementioned and make your bedroom more attractive. Good luck!
