Candle Lamps - Using a Moon Lamp to Enhance Your Decor from myphotolighter's blog

If you have recently purchased a Moon lamp lighter, you are probably excited about the many uses that this unique decorative object can have. A moon lamp is intended to look and work like a real candle, and this is accomplished through the design of its base material, as well as the shade of the lamp itself. Because a candle can be used in multiple ways, a lamp made from a combination of several materials that work together to create a single design can serve many purposes for you or your guests. For example, if you want your moon lamp to look like a realistic flame effect, then you should probably choose one of the many types of metal shades that are currently available.

One type of metal that you might want to consider is one that resembles the appearance of marble, granite, or some other highly polished metal. You can generally distinguish moon lighters with these types of bases by looking at the way that their shades and the base itself taper down towards the bottom of the lamp. This is a nice, subtle feature that can give your lamp a very classic, elegant look, which is especially appealing if your base material is wood. Another nice type of base to look for is one that has a flat, wide metal base, since this will give your lamp the appearance of being made of wood, whether it is marble or something else entirely.

The base of your lamp will usually need to have a hole drilled before it can be securely fastened to the table, but some tables may not require this before your purchase. Regardless of whether you opt for a base made of metal or some other material, you should know that this part of your purchase will most likely come with instructions on how to assemble your lamp, so you may want to take care of this task before purchasing your new accessory. Instructions are also usually found in the manual that came with your candle.read more...
