Understand lighting and chandeliers.
Before you decide on the perfect chandelier for your bedroom, it’s important to understand the lighting and the different types of chandeliers available. There’s a chandelier lamp for traditional or modern bedroom decors and a whole dazzling array of sizes and shapes.
- Traditional Chandeliers
- Modern Chandelier lights
- Flush Crystal Chandeliers
- Drum Chandeliers
- LED Chandeliers
Not all chandeliers are dripping in crystal, whilst there are many that are, some are less ornate. Made in a variety of materials from luxury lighting to more rustic painted styles the sheer scope is dazzling.
These modern chandeliers are worthy of consideration if you have a more contemporary or modern room.
Large or Small Chandeliers The Height of Luxury
Think about where you want to place your chandelier, if you have the height you may have a chandelier with a long drop, but if you have a low ceiling you may be better with a flush chandelier.
If you’re looking for a dramatic effect, an extra-large ornate style that hangs from the ceiling may be your first thought, however, selecting the right height avoids the light overpowering the space. The right scale for the ceiling height will help ensure the light fitment casts glimmering rays of light in all directions and doesn’t bonk you on the head. Lower-profile chandeliers are no less impactful. Crystal chandelier sparkles and steals attention be that a long drop or flush version. Refracting and reflecting jewel-like prisms chandelier fittings shine in any space.
Choose the right size for your bedroom.
When selecting the right size chandelier for your bedroom, count the room’s width and length in feet, then add the two numbers together. The sum should be the diameter of your chandelier in inches. If there is a tall ceiling or you want to hang your chandelier lower than the ceiling, use the height of your room and add it to both measurements. This will give you the appropriate diameter for a large cycle in inches. For example, if a room measures 10 x 12 feet, select a 22-inch chandelier and if it has a tall ceiling, choose one that’s 28 inches or larger in diameter.
Remember to always leave an absolute minimum of 7 feet of clearance from the base of the chandelier and the floor (this includes when hanging a chandelier over a bed!)
Place the chandelier in the ideal spot.
Allow your chandelier room to shine. The centre of the room is the perfect place to position your light, this allows you to see your perfect light from all angles. If this isn’t possible with your electrical set-up, try and retain a balance by adding the glam element to the space, perhaps a sparkly table lamp on the bedside table or bring in other decorative accessories such as mirrors or jewelled picture frames.
Hanging in the Balance
Make sure the chandelier is hung level, especially important when hanging symmetrical lights. Flat fitting or flush ceiling fittings negate the need to adjust height yourself when installing the light. Hanging chandelier lights can normally be adjusted in height wise and some also come with multi supports or wires to allow some adjustment on the horizontal plain.
To create proper illumination, it’s ideal to hang your chandelier with around eight feet of clearance between it and the floor. If you have a vaulted ceiling, you can add a few inches of extra clearance to make sure light will reach all main parts of the room.
Wall Sconce Chandeliers, Pretty Lighting to Enhance your Bedside
Chandeliers are by far the most coveted forms of light and elevate ordinary rooms into something altogether more opulent. Whilst some people desire elegance they don’t have ceilings suited to chandeliers. Wall lights can boost the sparkle immensely in a bedroom either as a stand-alone feature or a complementary addition to coordinate with the ceiling lighting.
Wall Lights work especially well when teamed with a summery wall covering amplifying the effect.
