Country Lighting 101
If you have a quaint country home or cottage, outfitting it with beautiful and
harmonious country style lighting can be a fun and rewarding task! Thanks to today's resurgence of antique-inspired pieces, it's easier than ever to find country lighting to complement your home. Here are some of today's trends in country lighting.
- Weathered Finishes. Distressed finishes add character to light fixtures, offering a touch of antique charm perfect for creating a country lighting scheme! Look for words like "rust," "patina," "old," "antique" and "weathered" in the finish; these suggest the trendy antiqued look.
- Hand-Painted Designs. Many country lighting fixtures today feature colorful hand-painted florals and designs, which recall the beauty and workmanship of simpler times.
- The "Gas Lantern" Look. For country lighting, the antique "gas lantern" look is one of today's hottest outdoor trends. For a truly authentic look, choose a vintage-inspired outdoor light and use a "flicker" light bulb, designed to mimic the look of gas lanterns.
- Nostalgic Accents. From antiqued crystal to weathervane designs in the framework, vintage-inspired accents add the unique, whimsical touches that take any country lighting scheme to the next level and add a touch of glamour.
