Switch off the tube light one evening and turn on a single lamp in the corner, and the room changes completely. Decorative lamps are what make a living room feel restful after a long day, when overhead lighting starts to feel harsh.

Table lamps suit bedsides and side tables; keep the bottom of the shade near eye level when you are seated. Floor lamps light a reading chair or a dark corner, and hanging lamps work over a dining table. Shades in fabric or paper spread a soft glow, while perforated metal or carved wood throws patterns on the walls.

Warm white bulbs, usually marked around 2700K, give the cosy yellow tone most homes prefer in the evening. Check cord length and switch position before buying. Unplug decorative lamps before cleaning, and brush shades gently rather than wiping them wet.

Frequently Asked Questions

What bulb gives a warm, cosy light?

Look for warm white LED bulbs, commonly labelled around 2700K to 3000K. Cool white bulbs of 5000K or more feel brighter and are better for work areas.

How tall should a bedside lamp be?

The bottom of the shade should sit roughly at eye level when you are sitting up in bed. That usually means a lamp of around 20 to 28 inches on a standard bedside table.

How do I clean a fabric lampshade?

Unplug the lamp, remove the shade and use a soft brush or a lint roller to lift dust. Spot-clean small marks with a barely damp cloth and let it dry fully.

Can I use a decorative lamp in a child's room?

Yes, choose one with a stable base, an enclosed bulb and a cord that can be tucked away. LED bulbs stay cooler to the touch.
