Etsy Design Awards Finalist 2022!

The Fish Paper Lantern is an Etsy Design Award Finalist in the category of Kids. Our love for children's decor and playful designs has been recognised through this nomination to Etsy Design Award.

The design is inspired by origami art and the Chinese tradition of paper lanterns. We wanted to create a product that would not only be beautiful but also fun and easy to assemble. Our Fish Paper Lantern is a great way to decorate a child's room or nursery. It can also be used as a sea-themed party decoration. The lantern comes as a flat-packed gift pack with clear step-by-step instructions and provides a few hours of mindful activity to assemble the paper lamp.

Lighting a child’s room is an art that combines safety, creativity, and functionality. Dive into the key points of creating a magical and functional space.

The best lighting for a child’s room incorporates a layered approach, meaning you blend different lighting types to cover various needs:

  • Ambient lighting provides the overall brightness for the room. This is your ceiling light, pendant, or flush-mount fixture that floods the entire room with light. It’s essential to avoid harsh overhead lights that may strain your child’s eyes. Instead, choose soft-glow LED fixtures that diffuse light evenly across the space. Ceiling fixtures like the ones from Vasili Lights are perfect for this, offering both style and functionality.
  • Task lighting is focused lighting for activities like reading, studying, or arts and crafts. Desk lamps with adjustable heads are a great choice here, allowing the light to be directed exactly where it’s needed. For younger children, consider fun, themed task lights like those with animal or cartoon shapes to keep things playful yet practical.
  • Accent lighting adds the finishing touches by highlighting particular areas or objects in the room, such as a favorite bookcase or wall art. Nightlights also fall under this category, providing a soft glow that is perfect for bedtime routines and comfort at night. Accent lighting doesn’t have to be boring—think string lights around the bed or fairy lights in glass jars to bring a touch of magic to the space.

Layering these three types of lighting ensures that the room remains functional while also adding warmth and personality to the space.
