The look of a room is all in the lighting. Just a couple of light dimmers should do the trick.

If you are entertaining in the evening, dim the lights a little. It will help soften the mood and create a more casual setting. Save the spotlights and chandelier lights for a more formal occasion. You could also try cloth and paper lampshades in different colours that give out a soft warm glow that can be very inviting.

For those kitty parties during the day, go with natural lighting. This way the place won't get heated up too much. Just one tube light would be enough. Open up the windows and let the sunlight stream in.

Mood Lighting can work magic for your home decor.
