Do you use the same lighting throughout your home or do you customize each space? Throughout different times in my life, I have been both. Now that I have matured some in my taste, I prefer different levels of lighting in different areas.

When I was 18 I moved into my very first home. It was a small rental but I was adulting and it was AWESOME! I didn't know anything about lighting wattage, lumens, or anything. I honestly thought all lightbulbs were the same. I had no idea what the numbers were for. Well, I figured it out fast when I was budgeting.

There are so many things that I bought for my new home because I thought it was a great idea. There was a huge sale at our local big box store. They had a wide selection of 10 for $10 items and I wanted to cash in on the savings. I bought 10 shampoos, 10 conditioners, 10 packs of lightbulbs.

Would you like to know my logic for my young adult shopping? So there were several numbers on the boxes but all of the pictures were the same. What did that mean to me, the bigger the number, the better the value. So, I bought 10 packs of 100-watt lightbulbs.





I went home, proud of my shopping adventure, and changed all of my lightbulbs to the new ones. That evening to my surprise, it was like daylight inside my home. I felt proud of my great buy until my mom came to visit, sat me down, and laughingly explained the difference in lighting wattage.

Ever since then, I have really paid attention to the area, it's intended purpose and the lighting options. For instance, in a reading area, brighter lighting. In a sleeping area, dimmer lighting. I also really like specialty lighting.




I have always loved the rustic look oil lamps and flame lighting but it's not the safest method to use. There are so many potential hazards that come along with it. So, how to get the look without using an actual flame? LED Flame lightbulbs!

I had the opportunity to work with Holiky on a review of their Flame LED Lights. This is the perfect time of year to display them. For any Chrismas decorations, these lights make a great addition.

What I like about them is they have a standard base (E26) and I can use it where ever I want. I got the 2- 2pack with the white base. They are lightweight and super simple to install. They screw right in.

These bulbs are so cool because they have 4 lighting modes: 1.flickering modes, 2.upside down mode, 3.breathing mode, 4.general light mode. What makes it even more awesome is there is no app to download. No wifi needed. It is fully functioning right by the light switch that is connected to it. You can change the mode by turning on/off the switch.

Holiky LED flame light bulbs will be a great addition to your home Christmas decorations indoors and outdoors.
