Renovate Your Home With Lighting for Less

Great lighting inside and outside a home can enhance the overall appearance and value while making it safer. With the right strategy, you can refresh your home's lighting for less than you think.

"Lighting can dramatically enhance a home's appeal," says Daniel Auer, a lighting expert with LightingShowplace.com. "Using the trends and secrets that professionals use can help you transform your home and illuminate features and areas that you want to draw attention to."

Auer offers these tips and trend ideas for improving the lighting inside and outside your home and saving money:

1) Skip the stores and shop online. Comparison shopping for home improvement items has never been easier thanks to the Internet. You can find the right items fast, without wasting expensive gas driving from store to store. With specialty Web sites like LightingShowplace.com, you can utilize a variety of tools to find just what you need for a great price.

The Web site allows you to shop by room, style and finish, brand name or price range with an inventory much larger than any brick and mortar store. If you need assistance, simply call the phone number for quick and personal service. By being able to quickly compare options, you'll find the right lighting for any area of your home for less.

2) Warm and bright outdoors all year long. Welcome people properly into your home by updating your outdoor lighting. Especially during the dark winter days, it's important to light paths and front entrance ways so people know where to walk and can safely shuffle in from the cold.

Consider wall lanterns on either side of the front door along with a hanging fixture or ceiling mounted fixture above the door to create a well lit space to welcome guests and provide additional security. A post mounted light in the yard helps increase security and light additional area. Highlight a walkway with small and stylish path lighting to invite guests into your warm and comfortable home. All of these items can generally be coordinated to match for an overall design theme.

3) Great indoor lighting makes a glowing first impression. First impressions count and good entrance lighting makes all the difference. Welcome people into your home with a spectacular hanging lantern, a multi-tiered chandelier or a large foyer fixture, which offers height and scale plus excellent general lighting. Look online for examples of how designers are using these in homes.

To top off the look, consider adding matching wall sconces, and a ceiling fixture for safety in stairways, halls and entryways. Nothing says welcome better than a warmly lit home.

4) The heart of the home. Proper lighting can refresh and renew any kitchen. Clean up dark corners and welcome dinner guests with lighting that looks great, but is also functional. Try a multipendant light over an island or mini pendants to strategically light counter space.

Under the cabinet lighting is also important for preparing foods in optimal lighting conditions. And don't forget about the kitchen table where you'll be enjoying those great meals. A medium sized chandelier or close to ceiling light is perfect for over a family's kitchen table. Add a dimmer switch so you can adjust as needed.

5) Save money with energy efficiency. When shopping, look for lighting options with the Energy Star symbol. Energy Star is a government-backed program that helps protect the environment through superior energy efficiency. Products with the Energy Star symbol meet strict energy efficient guidelines set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of Energy (DOE).

Energy Star qualified fixtures and bulbs use up to two thirds less energy than traditional lighting which lowers environmental impact and your energy bills. So not only do you save money, you're helping Mother Nature too.

6) A bright and cheery bathroom. A properly lit bathroom helps to make sure you and your bathroom look their best while also ensuring your safety. A well lit bathroom has the added benefit of perfectly applied makeup, flawless hair and more while adding style to decor.

Good lighting is soft, unshadowed and even. An ideally lit bathroom will have a fixture above the mirror. This fixture will provide overhead and general lighting. Wall sconces can also be considered, one sconce on either side of the mirror will help avoid shadows and fill in the rest of your face and neck properly. Most bathrooms will require additional flush mount ceiling lighting for the rest of the room.

"Whether you're getting ready to sell your home or simply want a quick update, lighting is one of the easiest ways to transform a house," says Auer. "And by shopping smart, it will be a dramatic change that doesn't cost a lot."

How to and DIY with a Wrought Iron Chandelier

How to and DIY with a Wrought Iron Chandelier

Wrought iron chandeliers are among the strongest with in the iron chandelier category. Each wrought iron chandelier has a special wrought iron bronze chandelier finish. There is also a wrought iron crystal chandelier category for the crystal enthusiast as well as a black wrought iron chandelier category. The quality detail and workman ship is second to none.

The 100% Crystal Wrought Iron Chandelier is part of A Great European Tradition. Nothing is quite as elegant as the fine crystal chandeliers that gave sparkle to brilliant evenings at palaces and manor houses across Europe. These beautiful wrought iron chandeliers are inspired from the Versailles Collection and there are known to be decorated and draped with hand-cut and polished 100% crystal that capture and reflect the light of the candle bulbs. The frames are Wrought Iron, adding the finishing touch to a wonderful fixture. The timeless elegance of the wrought chandelier is sure to lend a special atmosphere anywhere its placed!

There are a lot of types of wrought iron chandeliers and lighting. In today’s day - like most other things from back in the - the wrought iron chandelier is not made like it used to be. That being said you can still find that the quality and workmanship for these types of chandeliers are excellent. The wrought iron bronze chandelier is still made of metal and or iron but they are not hammered out and as heavy like they used to be. Whether you are shopping for a iron chandelier or a bronze chandelier you are sure to make any room look better then it did before. They truly are part of  the great tradition of  a Wrought Iron Chandelier.

Assembling a wrought iron chandelier or any other crystal chandelier can sometimes seem over whelming at first. You have a few choices you can either DIY and save money and feel accomplished and look at it every day knowing you put all your hard earned money and time into it, or of course you can take the easy way out and hire an electrician. No shame in that, its what most people do.

The basics of the basics in assembling wrought iron chandeliers goes as follows - most of them have the same idea, the one tiered iron chandelier usually starts with a bronze chandelier plate at its base. So if you have a ten light iron chandelier for example the plate that will sit at the bottom of the chandelier should have ten holes. Each arm will a have screw coming out of it at the bottom end of the arm - you will then put the arm with the screw coming out of it into one of the holes in the plate. Then you will take the nut that comes with it and you will screw it onto the bottom screw to tighten the arm to the plate. You will then do that for each arm.

After you are done putting all the wrought iron chandelier arms in the right places and fastening them with the screws you will have wires coming out of each arm - you should 1st consult a licensed electrician - but here or some of the basics of wiring your iron chandelier. First you should locate the two main wires that will be carrying the electricity to the ceiling, you can mark one main wire A and the second main wire B, then you should notice that the arms should have two wires coming out of each of them. Take a wire from each arm and label one of them A and one of them B (it does not matter which one is A or B). So to recap for a second being we have a ten light wrought iron chandelier we should have a total of 11 wires marked with the letter A and 11 wires marked with the letter B. You then take all the ones marked with the letter A and tape them all together with certified electrical tape, then do the same for all the letter B's. You will then have a beautiful wrought iron crystal chandelier electrified and ready to be hung into place.
