Party lighting is a critical element to throwing a party; make sure to use lamps to help make the effect you desire.
Depending on how the party is will determine the atmosphere of the party and what kind of experience your guests will have.
The first key to deciding which kind of lamps to use is to consider your theme.
For a 60's theme, bright colors are going to be present.
Think back to that timeframe and you'll think of a very special lamp...
the lava lamp.
Lava lamps come in a variety of colors and sizes.
From keychains that look like lava lamps to large multi-colored lava lamps choosing a lava lamp can be fun.
For quieter parties like book club parties consider using tea light lamps.
Tea light lamps give off a soft glow to enhance a serene setting.
To find tea light lamps look no further than a discount store or candle shop.
They can even be found online to match any particular theme.
Not only do tea light lamps add to the lighting of the party, but they also come in a variety of scents.
Choose from vanilla, lavender or even cut green grass scents to flavor the air at your party.
Of course, if you're considering throwing a party to promote the environment, make sure that all lamps are lit with fluorescent bulbs.
While initially they are more expensive, they produce light without burning nearly as much energy as a standard light bulb.
This is a must for any environmentally conscious party.
