LIGHTING - lamps, Chandeliers and Twinkle Lights

Adding lighting to your booth serves a number of purposes.  Most obviously, it can brighten up dark areas.  Lighting can also bring attention to special vignettes or objects.  It can also set a mood.

In the dreary winter months, lighting can make your booth feel cozier and more inviting.

The lights can be fancy and elegant - a crystal chandelier.  Simple twinkle lights / fairy lights could be strung.  A table lamp could be used.  If you don't have any extra lighting in your booth at the moment, grab something - even if it's the lights you decorated with at Christmas - and put it in your booth.  Try it.  Youll like it.

As always, pictures are worth a thousand words.  I have a few inspiration photos in this post, but loads more are over on the VSO Facebook page.  I now have an entire album devoted to lighting.  I plan to add loads more photos to all the albums as time goes on.

You can see loads more booth lighting photos on the Vintage Show Off Facebook Page.
