living room lighting fixture

Does your living room look like a cave? Is it dark, gloomy and full of shadows? Have you tried everything from painting in a brighter color, to rearranging your furniture to light the place up and just had no luck? Perhaps the solution in is changing your lighting. Rooms that are short on natural light don’t need to be left in the dark. With many affordable lighting options available there is no reason to just accept the fate of a gloomy room. Practically anyone can afford to brighten up their home with some well chosen living room lamps.
The lighting in your living room should be warm and inviting. Your living room is the site of family gatherings, and should evoke pleasant feelings. Even rooms that don’t have overhead lighting can be made cheery and bright by strategically placing a few great living room lamps. End tables and display cases are great places to place lamps that will make up for any lack of lighting that you have. Many homes have spots that floor lamps will work as well. Floor lamps can be great, in that the light will bounce off of the ceiling and be diffused through the entire room, shedding some much needed light on all of your family.
When considering lighting options for your living room, think about the kinds of things that your family typically does in your living room and where in the room they do it. If your family typically watched a lot of TV together, then you will want to stay away from placing a light somewhere that it can put a glare on the TV. You read a lot of books while snuggled on the couch, you should position lights on the ends of the couch, with wide enough lamp shades that the light will spread all of the way across the couch, so that you can easily see your book from any spot on the couch.
Something as simple as changing the lighting in your family room can make big changes to the way that your room looks overall. More so than even re-painting or getting new furniture, your lighting can define your room as either a formal space or a play place. Once you have figured out the feel that you want for your living room, developing a complimenting lighting concept isn’t too hard to do. With so many budget friendly options on the market, it is a simple and welcome addition to any dark space!

Why did my wall sconce spark and then turn off while I was dusting the fixture?
I have an old home built in 1925 that has very old wiring in my living room and dining room only. There is only one circuit that operates my living and dining room. I have 4 wall sconces in my living room that are all wired together, starting with fixture 1 all the way to fixture 4. I was dusting fixture 1, and the duster caused it to shift slightly, then causing a spark and a popping noise. At that time all of the 4 wall sconces went out. All other outlets in that room still work and my dining room light stayed on. I tried to reset that circuit and then for good measure changed out all of the light bulbs and reset the master circuit. Still no luck. I hope someone can help with a suggestion on what the issue might be. On a side note, my porch light works and to turn it on the switch is right next to the one for my wall sconces (which is on a dimmer switch).
Please help!!!
They are all probably wired in sequence the power coming to the first sconce feeds the other three. The spark was probably the hot wire broke loose .The only thing to do is have someone with electrical experience look at it, keep the breaker off until you do it could cause a fire. Good luck!!
