Glamour Themed Bedroom

With the introduction of our new crystal framed mirrors range we've been thinking all things glam recently and let's face it we all take pride in our homes aiming to create a glamorous look. People often opt for matching table lamps on coordinating bedside tables. This style of lighting can provide enough light for reading provided you have picked the right lampshades that don't put too much glare on your eyes. These can add a decorative touch to the room. You will also need lights on your dressing table particularly if this is where you apply makeup. This light should be positioned at shoulder height to minimize the risk of shadows. A floor mounted lamp or one that clips to your mirror should work fine but wall candle sconces are not appropriate for this particular task.

There are ways of creating luxurious glamorous look without having expensive tastes. Plus adding that touch of glamour to your home will make it feel that bit extra special around the festive season. Many designers will define glamour in your home as "having an air of allure, adventure romance and excitement" Glamorous can be a room or furniture within that space that exude beauty and elegance. Often glamorous homes are sophisticated, elegant and bold with statement pieces. Glamorous interiors are most definitely about quality and not quantity.

If you have a large bedroom you may want to add a chandelier to the lighting scheme. You can buy ones that match your wall lights both in style and finish. Look at the rest of the decor when deciding on the types of wall candle sconces you want to install. If you have decorated your bedroom in a modern theme you may get away with chrome or stainless steel fittings. In a period bedroom, brass candle sconces may be more appropriate.

Ensuring your house remains neat and tidy is an underwritten rule when it comes to glamorous interiors. If you have mirrored furniture or metal ornaments ensuring they are polished can help create a serene feel fingerprints and dust do not bode with glitz and glamour. Additionally do not over clutter your space displaying fewer accessories will create a much more effective impact. As we're approaching the festive season selecting subtle shiny metallic accessories is a great start in creating a glamorous feel in your home.

With us approaching Winter and the festive season a focus on darker colour tones can help to create a glamorous feel. Rich colours with lots of shiny metallic are perfect for Christmas decors. Traditional glamorous colour palettes include rich silks in blue, red and gold these classic colours evoke a feeling of glamour. The neutral feel of grey linen upholstery and natural grain of wood combined with glamorous crystal accessories can create a fantastic French rustic feel that is exceptionally glamorous.
