They say a room is just walls and furniture until you give it soul.

I learned that the quiet way—alone in my studio at midnight, brushing dust off a vintage armchair and wondering why the space still felt... flat. The colors were right. The textures? Lush. But it didn’t breathe. It didn’t glow.

Then I remembered something my grandmother once said as she lit a tiny table lamp in her kitchen:
“You don’t need sunlight to feel warmth. You just need the right kind of light.”

That’s when I stumbled across 50bulbs.com—a site I’d only bookmarked and forgotten. I browsed through their lighting like flipping through a dream catalog. It wasn’t just bulbs. It was character. Mood. A little bit of sparkle and a lot of warmth.

I found a soft amber pendant that looked like poetry in glass.

When I hung it, everything changed. The room smiled back at me for the first time.

Now, every space I design begins and ends with lighting. And every time, 50bulbs.com is my quiet partner in glow.
