A Modern Affair!

As we talked about it earlier, the Edison bulb looks great even in the modern kids’ room when combined with the right ceiling or bedside lamp. Modern and midcentury chandeliers with Edison bulbs look great above the bed while slimmer, more space-savvy pendants sit snugly next to the bed. Blend them with a splash of color, a bit textural contrast and repeat their use elsewhere in the room to fashion a more curated ambiance.
