Before you choose a lamp, you want to think about your lighting needs for the space. The best lamps will perfectly blend style and function, making them an important addition to a room’s design.
Watch this video to learn how to choose a lamp that meets all of your design and functional needs. Look around your room to determine where you need additional light sources. Keep in mind that dark lampshades direct light down, while light shades illuminate the room. You also want to be sure to choose a size that does not cause a glare.
Delande Lighting has a huge selection of residential and commercial lighting in Salem. We can also perform lamp repairs. Call us today at (888) 785-5429 to start the search for your new light fixture.

A chandelier is an ideal addition to a dining room design. Not only does it give you better control over the room’s lighting, but it also serves as a decorative accent. The simple addition of this light fixture can make your entire room seem complete. When choosing a chandelier for the dining room:
Consider the Rest of the Décor
The best way to enhance the look of your dining room is to choose a chandelier that complements the rest of your design choices. If you have a primarily traditional dining room, for example, you should consider this theme when selecting light fixtures. You can also incorporate a few different styles to create an eclectic décor.
Consider the Size of the Space
A small chandelier will not look right in a large, open dining room. Think about the size of the room and your furniture to get a basic idea of what you need. A chandelier that has a similar size ratio to other items in the room will enhance your aesthetic effect. Look for a light fixture that is six inches narrower than the slimmest part of your table. Try to leave at least 32 inches between the table and the bottom of the chandelier.
Consider the Formalness of the Room
Some chandeliers work well in casual dining rooms but cannot really transition to formal settings. Choose a light that creates the atmosphere that you want in the dining room. If you want to use the room for both formal and casual occasions, find a chandelier that can seamlessly pass between the two styles.

Homeowners around the country are trying to cut down on costs and reduce waste in order to maintain safe and healthy lifestyles. Residential lighting may be an essential part of the home, but it can also be changed in order to save money and power. Changing from traditional light bulbs to compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs) can offer you and your family a number of benefits.
Cut Down on Energy Use
One of the most appealing aspects of changing to CFLs is cutting down on how much energy is used in the house. Research shows that CFLs require much less energy than their traditional counterparts, typically using between 50% and 80% less energy than other light bulbs. This will allow you to reduce the amount of energy used in your home, providing benefits for the environment!
Save Money on Energy Bills
CFLs will help your family cut back on energy use in the home, resulting in a reduction in your monthly energy bills. Lowered energy bills will allow you to save money or spend that money in other ways that benefit your family.
Spend Less on Light Bulbs
When shopping for light bulbs, you will likely see that CFLs initially cost more than incandescent light bulbs. That is because CFLs offer so many benefits and tend to last approximately 10 times as long as incandescent bulbs. This means you will end up spending less in the long run, because you won’t have to replace light bulbs as often!
Reduce Indoor Cooling Costs
Have you ever felt uncomfortably warm after having your incandescent light bulbs on for too long? If so, you can create a cooler interior by using CFLs. These light bulbs are much more efficient and produce less heat. This will allow you to enjoy a cool home without spending more on cooling costs.
Delande Lighting is Salem’s best destination for residential lighting options. You can visit our website or call us at (888) 785-5429 to learn more about the benefits of making the switch to CFLs.
