Caned!

12/30/2018

I am currently loving the look of caned furniture. A somewhat classic, yet vintage and retro, and still yet - it’s been around since 1300 BC when the Egyptians used it in their furniture. It was popular in Europe in the 17th and early 18th century when affluent people purchased chairs with caned seat bottoms. I grew up with it in the 70’s and while it may have been less popular in the past few decades, it sustains a timeless look. Here’s a look at the oh so many ways it can be used!

Lighting Ideas

Recently a client of mine asked for help in selecting bedside lighting. Her challenges were having lighting that doesn’t interfere so much while the other person sleeping, as well as an easy turn off switch that doesn’t completely involve mauvering around to turn off the light. Looking at pictures for inspiration and concepts, like at Staunton & Henry, the following are some bedroom lighting ideas. In the picture above, a swing sconce can be manauvered to adjust the lighting and the black shade helps to spotlight.
Picture
A lamp with a cord that has the on and off switch on is easier to adjust and turn off.
Picture
Adjustable task lamps are always great, especially for reading.
Picture
Task lamps by the bedside are great for reading.
Picture
Having multiple sources of lighting helps create ambience and mood.
Picture
Lighting that keeps the glare off the eyes is ideal in a bedroom.
Picture
For some sources, I selected some of these lighting options. This World Market lamp is adjustable for reading and has a switch on the base plate.
Picture
This task lamp from West Elm has a pull chain for an easy on / off.
Picture
A swing arm sconce from Lamps Plus with the switch on the backplate.
Picture
Another swing arm sconce option with a larger shade and easy to maneuver handle.
Picture
These set of two bronze plug in sconces are a great deal.

​As Kitchen Wise of Frisco points out, you can also make use of lighting to make your rooms appear less cluttered. Recessing lights, for instance, helps to take some of the harshness out of a room. You can hide them behind architectural features or simply install them atop your cabinets.
