You Need More Lamps

One of my clients lit nine candles every evening because she only had one lamp in her entire living room. The candles weren’t the problem—they were compensating for bad lighting. Once we layered the lighting properly, she never needed them again. The room finally had the warmth she’d been trying to create all along.
You’ll also learn how to choose the right lampshade proportions, bulb temperature, and lamp styles, why a wall sconce—or even the perfect gourd lamp—can transform a dark corner, and how to create a lighting plan that makes every room feel warm, welcoming, and beautifully finished.
