Return To Chandelier Article Archive   Search the Article Archives Fun Lighting Projects By Terry Price Adding light to your favorite room is one of the best ways to add interest and drama to a room. Lighting, when it is done the right way can define, highlight, and contribute significantly to the ambience of a space. Of course, one of the best ways to save time and money is have this done when the home is built, but of course this is not always possible especially when it comes to older home lighting projects. Since we already live in finished spaces we should consider lighting projects that can be easily added to a room. Remember to consult with your local permit and inspection regulators to ensure your home lighting project is done within your local guidelines. For the most part, home handymen can accomplish most projects quite successfully but it is recommended no matter what type of project you undertake that you have the phone number of a qualified electrician handy, just in case! There are several different ways to tackle a home lighting projectl. You are well advised to go to you local home improvement store and pick up a comprehensive book so you completely understand the almost infinite variety of lighting packages available and how you might install them. Up lighting is one of the favorite tricks of designers. Up lighting is made from very inexpensive fixtures and only a simple plug-in is required. This unique type of lighting is available in metal cans or small adjustable halogen fixtures. Another great home-lighting project is under-cabinet lighting or some call it under- valance lighting. Used mainly in home offices, kitchens or work areas, this is possibly one project you want to leave for the electrician as this should be installed to work off of one main switch. You can also install individual units and each fixture will have its own switch. Whatever lighting project you have in mind, have fun improving your living space and remember to shop online to get prices on the supplies you will need.
