The correct and thoughtful interior of the room includes not only convenient and comfortable furniture, but also has suitable lighting fixtures. For each type of room, for any corner of the room, it is necessary to select lighting purely individually, relying on their functionality, design and type of outgoing light. In the last century, lampshades for lamps began to enjoy popularity.
This is a kind of light dampener that can easily emphasize the overall concept in interior design, or be an element of artistic decoration of the room. But what can be a lampshade? Where is it widely used?
Cozy atmosphere through lighting
Dim light, such as a night lamp, creates a feeling of coziness and comfort. But not every room needs to create a calm atmosphere for sleep. There are rooms in which, on the contrary, it is necessary to encourage actions with the help of light, but at the same time not to “blind” with direct streams of light, and for such cases it is worth choosing a suitable lampshade for lamps. The data itselflighting designs have a lot of varieties: desktop, floor, pendant, ceiling, built-in and so on.
Also, according to the place of use and materials, lamps differ from each other. Ceiling lampshades, table lampshades made of fabric, metal, wood, glass, polyethylene and even acrylic paints. Since the specificity of such devices lies precisely in subdued light and in the original design, it is worth considering what options exist for such do-it-yourself decor elements.
Lamp design
Specialists in decoupage and interior design argue that even the most ordinary things can be made into an original lighting fixture. So, if several old graters for chopping vegetables were lying around in the pantry, and there is a wooden plank, then we can assume that the lampshade for the lamps is ready. To make an original decor element for the kitchen, you need to take a wooden plank and a few vegetable graters. Then you need to drill the required number of holes for the wire in the bar and fix the bulb holders on their bases. A grater is attached over the cartridge and the hole (either by the handle, or with corners and small self-tapping screws). In this case, it is better to refuse glue. Once all the graters are in place, and this original lighting fixture is hung or fixed in the right place, you can screw in the light bulbs. A bar that holds up to 5 graters will look very stylish. The light will be smoothly scattered due to the large number of holes on the graters.
Do it yourself
You can come up with another lampshade for lamps, the same original and designer.
For example, if a light bulb screwed into a cartridge weighs on the ceiling, such a direct stream of light can be scattered in another original way - with the help of threads and yarn. To do this, first an ordinary ball is inflated, preferably a spherical shape, and then yarn must be wound over the ball in a chaotic manner. To prevent the threads from spreading, the yarn must be impregnated with glue, then very durable lamps are obtained. Ceiling lampshades of this type will look advantageous, as they will create a fancy pattern from the shadows. Continuing to make a lamp, you should wrap the ball with rope, yarn, threads and dry the resulting object. When the shape of the frame is strong, you need to remove the ball, letting the air out of it and pulling it out through the gaps between the threads.
After this, a very strong spherical lampshade is obtained, which can be easily fixed to the ceiling so that the light bulb is inside. Soft light and interesting patterns on the walls and ceiling will create a special, playful atmosphere.
Fabric as the main element of lampshade decor
The most popular lighting elements today are lamps with fabric lampshades. Why? Because it is this material that allows you to scatter light evenly and fill the room with a certain light with a color spectrum. For example, if the selected material is white, then the lighting in the room will become colder, but more saturated. Choosing a yellow fabric, you canget very warm tones.
Most often, such a lamp, a table lamp, is chosen for decorating a bedroom. With a lampshade of the original form, any lighting fixture will become a decoration, so if the prices for exclusive models are too high in the store, you should try your skills in this area and come up with your own, unique lampshade.
