I have to say, I absolutely hate the current bathroom lighting we have and would love to change it. We live in rented accomodation at the moment and we’re not really allowed to change things like that. The thing is it looks gorgeous, it’s a really nice shade, the bulbs are fancy, it looks expensive – but it directs all the light upwards and off to the side so it’s utterly useless for doing many of the things a lady wants to do in a bathroom. If you are just in there using the loo or brushing your teeth there’s no problem but when you want to start applying make up or plucking your eyebrows you have no chance.
It’s a smiliar tale in the living room as well – the light looks beautiful and expensive but it will only take really high wattage bulbs so whenever it’s on you are always thinking about how much it’s costing, or at least I am because that’s how I think. We bought a cheap lamp that takes an energy saving bulb and we tend to just use that all the time instead, only turing the main light on when we really need to see or find something.
