Our Tip Featured in the Redfin Article

In the Redfin article, our team contributed a simple yet powerful idea for lighting rooms that lack ceiling lights: using handcrafted lanterns and floor lamps with soft, ambient light to bring warmth and charm to any space.

At King of Handmade, we believe that lighting should do more than just illuminate—it should create atmosphere. Our Moroccan-inspired brass lanterns and woven lampshades diffuse light in a way that is both calming and decorative. They’re perfect for bedrooms, living rooms, reading nooks, or any area where overhead lighting isn’t an option.

We invite you to check out the full article to explore all the expert insights and learn how to enhance your home using creative lighting solutions:
