August 5, 2012 Leave a Comment

When you are redecorating a room, the right lighting can make all the difference in the world. In fact, just added new lighting to a room can really change things in a big. Lamp Click is an online retailer that specializes in all types of lighting to fit your decorating and renovating needs. They carry everything from the simplest of lamps to ceiling lights, wall lighting, and outdoor lights. And they also have a whole host of other home decor like clocks, vases, candleholders, wall art, and picture frames

You may enjoy the Sonneman Collection from lampclick.com. It includes a mix of modern and contemporary lighting in both bronze and chrome finishes. Above are just a few pieces from this collection. My favorite is the Flute-Sconce on the bottom left. I love its modern appeal, and I just think it’s very stlish and unique.

And then I also like the Sonneman Lighting Transitional 8 Light Heirloom 8 Light Round Pendant on the bottom right. I think this would be great for someone who wants to dress up a room without making it too formal.

I also rather enjoyed browsing through all their table lamps. One of my favorite pieces is the Uttermost Lighting Iris Buffet Designed By Carolyn Kinder (pictured above). I love the green and auburn glass. It is so pretty and unique.

And I also like their other home decor, especially the wall mirrors. One in particular that I found interesting was the Fine Art Lamps Beveled Arcs Girandole. I really like the sconces on either side, and I also like the frame around this mirror. It sort of reminds me of the mirror on the wall from Snow White. It has a romantic yet mysterious look to, and it would definitely make a great show piece.

Head over to lamp click to check out their other selections in fine lighting and home decor!
