Watch me discuss lighting trends on The Marc and Mandy show. I’ll discuss how frosted glass is increasingly popular. Frosted glass diffuses the light and creates more ambient lighting for you to enjoy. Using a warm LED bulb and a lighting dimmer creates a soft glow. Smokey glass and amber glass are also on trend in lighting right now. The lighting industry is really working with LED lighting from undercounter lights to bedroom fixtures, pendants and chandeliers. It creates a big impact while saving energy and turning your lighting fixture into statement lighting. There is more available now than ever before in smart home lighting. Lighting fixture finishes that are on trend right now is gold and a new mixed metal finish of white and gold. Gold light fixtures add a feeling of warmth and richness to your home decor. Pop into our Toronto lighting showroom to see the latest lighting trends!
We have had our first snowfall and it is starting to officially feel like (dare I say it) Winter.
It is a good time of year to remember that your ceiling fans can still be effective. Set the switch to reverse the direction to push warm air down.
Switches are either found on your fans remote, or on the fan above one of the blades. Remember in winter the direction of your blades should be going clockwise - when you look up at it. Stay warm and save energy!
It's the last days of our fall flyer sale. Pop by before November 30th for savings up to 30% off on select suppliers. Special order items also qualify for these savings, but there are only a few days left!

Fall nights call for more lighting
Easy ways to incorporate more light into your room with suggestions from our Fall Flyer Sale. Our sale is on until November 30th - so don't wait!
The nights are getting dark earlier again. It's that time of year where we start to notice the importance of lighting fixtures in our lives (if you don't already!)
In the video included with this newsletter I suggest changing out some light fixtures for ones with more lightbulb sockets. Here are some chandelier options that are on display in our showroom right now and are on sale.
Of course we have light fixtures available for every room and style. These are just a few suggestions for what might be the busiest rooms in your home; the living room, dining room and kitchen island. Increase that light for workspace use, and install a dimmer to set the mood as you use the same space for different functions throughout the day.
See my first appearance on the Marc and Mandy show for some easy ways to add light into your home. I discuss lighting fixtures with more bulbs as an easy way to increase lighting in your home. Floorlamps and table lamps are another quick and affordable way to shine light where & when you need it. Great for task lighting! Add in some quick under-counter lighting that can act as both task lighting and mood lighting.
Outdoor lighting increases your curb appeal and home security. Change out your lightbulbs for LED bulbs to increase illumination. Or add in path lights for curb appeal.
