Keep It Soft
For an enjoyable bathroom retreat, designer Erinn Valencich suggests using ultra-soft lighting for the most appeal. Small wrought-iron wall sconces provide warm accent lighting around the mirrors, while a simple hanging pendant takes the place of harsh recessed lighting. Design by Gail Drury
Add a Colorful Accent
To keep a white room from looking bland, Erinn says to add colorful light fixtures for a subtle pop of color, like these metallic gold bedside lamps. The gold tones are a perfect accompaniment to hot pink bed linens, while giving a burst of color to the crisp, white nightstands. Design by Andreea Avram Rusu
To brighten a room in a unique way, Erinn says to add a coat of shiny metallic paint to the ceiling. The paint reflects the recessed lighting in this elegant kitchen to create a dramatic look that isn't costly or time-consuming to put together. Design by Dave Stimmel
Take It Outside
Just like interior rooms, yards and patios need comfortable furniture and great lighting, Erinn says. A combination of accent and garden lighting showcases the natural landscaping and soothing poolside stream. The subtle lighting from the fireplace and candle alcoves helps to create a warm and inviting outdoor space. Design by Chad Robert
Create a Well-Lit Welcoming
An etched glass pendant is the perfect piece to illuminate the foyer, and an eye-catching candle vignette adds a soft glow to the entry table. Tip: To determine the correct size for a fixture, Erinn suggests adding together the length and width of your room. The result in feet will be the fixture size in inches.
