Antler
Lighting
Lighting
is something that can make any occasion look even more beautiful
and special whatever the eve may be Christmas or Diwali. For those
who want to give their home a different look can bank upon an
appropriate lighting system.
The
dictionary defines an ‘antler’ as one of a pair of
hornlike, bony, deciduous growths, usually elongated and branched,
on the head of a deer, moose, elk, caribou, or other member of
the deer family.
The more authentic the lighting system is the better a look it
gives to your house.
Decorating
terminology can be daunting. Everyone has a preconceived definition
of terms used to describe home décor. Early American, Colonial,
Victorian, contemporary, and the list goes on, each one supposedly
designating a very different style. A large number of top quality
antlers including antler chandeliers, antler lamps and antler
furniture are available these days. But quality plays an important
role. While making antlers, all wires should be run through the
center of the antlers and junction boxes should be concealed.
No screws or wires should be visible.
Every
antler chandelier comes with an attractive light socket cove made
from real antler. This conceals the fixture, preserving the natural
appearance of the antler light right up to the bulb. When shopping
for antler lighting it is important to make sure that the whole
entire fixture, not just the components, are CSA/UL approved to
comply with the US and Canadian building codes and regulations.
Rustic
lighting:
Probably one of the most misunderstood words in home decorating
is “rustic”. Visions of log cabins, rough-hewn wood
beams, rural farmhouses or lakeside cottages immediately jump
to the fore when something is called rustic. Those are rustic,
but so are many other styles and decorator choices. Using rustic
pieces adds warmth and individuality to every conceivable decorative
style. A touch of humor or a reminder of the important things
in life can give heart to any room, any home. Rustic can be used
with contemporary, country, classic, and art deco. Chances are,
rustic decorating will add charm and uniqueness to any style.
People are drawn to certain styles, and there is something rustic
to fit them all. Have fun with it. Incorporate those rustic touches
to put an individual signature on a home.
Antler
lighting is a good option to give your cabin or your home a special
touch and make you feel even more special being there.
