Ott-Lite Carolina Table Lamp

I decided it was time to redecorate my house. I moved into my husband’s parent’s house when we were first married. His parents moved out but their style was left behind. It has been twelve years and their ugly wallpaper is still plastered everywhere. I finally had the money and time to decorate the way I wanted to. I wanted my home to feel comfortable while marinating a classic style. I decided to go for natural colors such as tans and olive greens. Accessories made a huge impact in making my vision a reality. My favorite accessory is the Carolina Table Lamp I purchased. It’s sophisticated and charming appearance goes well with every room in the house. It has an expensive look but the price wasn’t bad. The antique bronze color is sleek and gives my home that specific vintage yet modern feeling I was going for. In addition to looking great, the lamp is eco-friendly producing very low amounts of heat. My husband leaves the lamp in his office on over night and it still doesn’t get hot. He says it’s great on his eyes. All of the lights at thelightsource.com (where I found the lamp) use a natural light technique which eliminates eye strain and increases detail and color because the light doesn’t give off a glare. The lamp is petite weighing seven pounds or so and has thin curvaceous features. My home really wouldn’t have a classic style without it. I know the lamps are a very small part of the interiors over all design but the non glare and natural illumination make it a great accessory. I purchased a few of them and very pleased with the way they bring everything together.

Hampton Table Lamp by Ott-Lite

Beauty is important to me when choosing an appropriate lamp. I want the lamp to fit in with my décor and bring out the true essence of the room with superb lighting. The Hampton table lamp found at thelitesource.com is absolutely gorgeous but more importantly, the lighting is unique. The Hampton table lamp is complete with an 18watt ottlite tube. The tube comes with the lamp and replacements are easily found at the same site, thelitesource.com. The 18 watt tube is made with natural light so it resembles daylight. Daylight is what our eyes are naturally meant to work with. Other lighting can often be harsh and eventually cause a feeling of strain around the eyes or headaches. Many studies have been done proving natural light helps to reduce or even eliminate those strains. Reading is simple and enjoyable for long hours. The bulb is non glare and has a soft natural illumination. I love how this lamp can light up a room and appear to be bright but when I am reading beneath it, the bulbs light feel gentle. This lamp also has the ability to gain height with its adjustable base. The head of the lamp swivels to so light can be shone in the optimal areas of interest. There is no round lamp shade so the light is clearer and brighter. The design is professional and classy. The brushed nickel is a great color because it matches plenty of objects and rooms. The Hampton table lamp matches every room in my house except the dining room. My husband and I have chosen a gold and bronze theme for that room. The Hampton table lamp can actually be purchased in a bronze but I prefer the nickel. Check out the Hampton Floor Lamp for a marvelous continuation of the pattern.

Ott-lite bulbs are known for allowing colors to be seen in their true form. This means under the Ott-Lite bulb, colors are brighter and deeper in tones.

Ott-Lite Lisbon Art Lamp

This year’s art show brought in more questions, compliments and purcheses than any previous show. People kept showing up and instead of going home around 10pm, I finally had to ask people to leave after midnight. I like to think I’m a great artist but my style and interest in landscapes for painting hasn’t really changed much over this last year. I’m contributing my success to the Lisbon Art Lamp. The petite lamp is finished in a professional brass and looks great hanging above each painting. I was nervous about ruining my painting despite the positive things I heard about this lamp. I tested it before the show on a couple pieces I wouldn’t terribly miss. Not only did the light not cause any damages, but it brought out the detail in colors. Seriously, the colors were dramatically enhanced. I decided to hang the lamp in my craft room so I could complete all of my unfinished paintings beneath it. It doesn’t produce heat so my paintings are safe and I never feel over heated painting under it for long hours. The details in my work are so much clearer so I’ve found I make fewer mistakes. The 10watt replacement tube is easy to install and can be found at thelitesource.com along with other great lamps and accessories for crafting.

Ott-Light Learning Light

I read some studies claiming natural light improves grades and helps children to read for longer periods of time. My son wasn’t the quickest learner and it’s hard to keep his attention focused on his school work. I was browsing the internet and found The Learning Light at www.thelitesource.com. I decided to order it and have been so pleased with the results. My son does his homework without complaints now. He says The Learning Light doesn’t smell like it is going to cause a fire which sounds funny but he is always concerned about that when lamps get too hot. The Learning Light doesn’t produce heat but is still very bright. It doesn’t have a glare because it uses natural illumination. This makes it easy to read under for long periods of time. My son’s light is red and has become a favorite accessory of his while doing homework because all of his favorite race cars are the same cherry color. It is light in weight and portable. We love it because it folds up and his teacher lets up put it in his backpack and bring it to class. His teacher was telling us the other kids seem to enjoy it too. She wants to buy a couple to put around the classroom for their reading session. A study done by an engineer in North Carolina reported libraries with natural lighting have lower noise levels. The study also stated natural lighting induces positive moods making the light a batter choice for learning environments.

Ott-Lite Sanibel Table lamp

Lamps can be a crucial part of the decorating process. The prefect paint, curtains, throw pillows and designer love seat are not going to be complete without the perfect lighting to show them off. When choosing a lamp for this purpose, it is important to keep a few things in mind. First of all, the appropriate lamp will be one that isn’t harmful to fabrics or furniture meaning the light will not cause colors to fade over time. Secondly, colors and detail are the main focus here so a lamp that increases these features is best. It is also important that the lamp be functional allowing guests and family members to get the best out of it and be comfortable. Finally, style is still the purpose of the accessory itself so the lamp will should include all of the above while remaining fashionable. The Sanibel Table Lamp is the one I chose for my office, guest bedroom and living room. It produces natural light resembling daylight which is healthier for human eyes and better for shining on furniture. Natural light is made with modern technology and makes colors specifically more outstanding than regular every day light bulbs. The Sanibel Table Lamp takes a 25watt Plug in Swirl. Remember, lower watts means less energy used, not the amount of light produced. This lamp produces very bright light showing off all of my best decorating. It has a swinging arm allowing the light to be shown at any piece of furniture desired. This light is absolutely perfect because it is completely functional and versatile with its ability to easily adjust as well as reduce eye strain. Reading beneath it for long periods of time is so comfortable so it is a great bedside accessory or desk lamp for the office. The Sanibel Lamp caught my attention because it is gorgeous and professional looking. The Base is bronze and has a great European, modern appeal with small stair like features leading to a crisp white linen shade. It looks great in any room.
