CHOOSING the BEST MONKEY LAMP

A monkey lamp is a whimsical and fun way to shed a little light on many styles of room decor. You may have a preconceived notion that decorating with monkeys is reserved for rooms that are occupied by kids. While this can be the truth, you may be surprised to know that these creatures are now showing up in dining rooms and formal living areas of modern homes.
It’s not unusual to see a brass monkey table lamp decorating an elegant side table in formal rooms just as often as you might find one in a child’s bedroom.

There’s nothing stiff or formal about monkey floor and table lamps that are used in kids’ bedroom decorating projects. Ideas for what particular kind of monkey that might be considered appropriate for your space will depend on the room’s color scheme or room theme if one is in place.

There are several styles of monkey bedding sets that are popular with teenage girls that are hopping with color and lively designs. Lamps featuring a base decorated with monkeys dressed as bellhops, organ grinder’s monkeys and circus performers will fit perfectly in this kind of informal and fun style of monkey bedroom decor. To customize your monkey lamp, stencil polka dots on the lamp shade or trim a plain white shade with pom pom fringe, feathers or colorful beads.

If your little lady wants a funky, bohemian room design take advantage of the opportunity to bring your vintage sock monkey lava lamp out of the closet and enjoy watching the bubbles flow for a lovely trip down memory lane.

Remember that monkey lamps and teenage girls' monkey bedding sets are not just for kids. Adult bedrooms can benefit from replicas of antique, cast bronze monkey lamps or those carved from exotic wood even if there are no other jungle style room decorations in sight. For rooms where color match is an issue, a burnished brass monkey with a neutral antique ivory or cream color lamp shade might be the best choice.

For the room that is lacking personality or that special item with pizzazz, I hope that you will consider one of the stylish monkey table lamps on the market. To light a large area, there are buffet lamps that come in sets that you could locate on each end of a table or dresser and if you want to mix it up, monkey candle holders and sconces.
