Setting The Mood Using Mini Lamp Shades

You can find a number of uses for mini lamp shades. With Christmas just around the corner, you can use the shades for the lights on your Christmas tree. If you don’t have a tree, the shades can be used on chandelier lights, these are what we call candelabra shades. Depending on the kind of mini lamp shades, one can easily set the mood, lighten up the room and bring style or elegance to the room.

Mini lamp shades come in various designs and colors, pretty like the big shades. The company Lite Source has a number of mini shades in the market. The black finished bell shaped shade is one. Equipped with a clip-on fitter, the shade will fit over any standard candelabra bulb. A regular bulb would accommodate the shade as well. The shade measures 3 inches on top, 5 inches on the bottom and have a 4-inch slant height. The black semi-translucent fabric offers great mood lighting. White linings on the top and bottom ends of the shade add to its overall elegance.

Another Lite Source product is a red jacquard candelabra shade. The woven fabric could most likely be damask with a rustic red color which makes it perfect to use on lighting ornaments which have a country feel. With a 3-inch top, a 6-inch bottom and a 5-inch slant height, these jacquard mini lamp shades fit exactly on candelabra and regular bulbs because of the clip-on fitter. At a mere 0.35 lbs, the shade offers relatively no stress on the bulb. The jacquard weave can be quite thick relative to other mini lamp shades so when you do decide to use this one, be aware that the over all lighting condition would be less because of the material.

If red jacquard won’t work for you, a leaf patterned yellow jacquard candelabra shade might. The leaf patterns and the yellow color of the shade help refresh the atmosphere of the room. The yellow color also allows more light to shine through from the bulb which results to a brighter room. Flooding the room in yellow light gives that summer feel which can work in living rooms or even in the dining area. The design is more casual than elegant but it works. These mini lamp shades pretty much share the same dimensions of the two mini shades above: 3 inches on the top, 6 inches on the bottom and a slant height of 5 inches.

If you want simple and elegant, then you might want to consider a kraft paper candelabra lamp shade. The beige kraft mini lamp shades would be great choice if you want to highlight simplicity in your lamps and in your room. The kraft paper allows a lot of light in your room and the bell shaped shade adapts well in all kinds or designs of chandelier, wall lamps or even mini table lamps. The lamp shade is 6 inches at the base, 3 inches at the top and 5 inches side length.
