When hosting a party it is important to create the right ambiance. Lights can transform the mood of a party, and are a versatile
way to entertain guests. A mirror can be used to bounce candlelight
around the room and crystals (or other reflective surfaces) are great
for adding that extra festive sparkle.
For already existing lighting, try changing out the light bulbs to
something more festive. A soft rose light in a corner lamp provides a
cheerful glow. Lit candles inside colored glass votives adds sparkle
throughout a room.
If your room is large and has a high ceiling, you can use several
types of small lamps to create low pools of light and make the room
cozier.
Highlight particular areas of the room such as the fireplace, the
buffet table, up a staircase, or in a potted tree, with a string of
twinkle lights to create a shimmering glow.
No matter which form of lighting you choose, use common sense regarding safety.
