wonderlamps for kids’ rooms

bloesen toverlamp childrens lightingRemember Dutch lighting designers Hartendief? I wrote about their wonderful range of children’s lighting a while ago. Founder Hylkia got in touch to let me know they have added three new magic designs – and they are lovely! As with the previous lamps,  the lamp changes appearance when the light is switched on at night, revealing a magic scene.

I often find kids’ lighting a bit too themed and overbearing, adding yet another element that draws the eye in rooms that have so much going on already. The beauty of Hartendief’s magic lights is that they are mostly white with a simple motif when they are switched off during the day, and only come to life at night. The perfect solution!

Do you remember your bedroom light? Mine had different forest animals all around it, and I never tired of examining the colours, shapes and story it told. What did yours look like?

  2. These are really beautiful – thank you for sharing them. My favourite light when I was a child had tiny flowers and fairies to match my wallpaper. I used to dream of finding flower fairies in the garden!
