Make your living room more romantic, increase the wattage of the light bulbs to 100 or 150. (It’s essential that your lamps are labeled to accept this wattage; if not, they’ll need rewiring, which may cost about $30.) Then install dimmer switches and dial the brightness down. You’ll get a golden-yellow light that encourages intimate conversations.
Why not just start with less wattage? Because a 100-wattbulb dimmed to 60 watts casts a yellower light - more like candlelight - than a plain 60-watt bulb. So simple but it works! Try it.
