Don’t you just love when you find a solution to an annoying problem? A lightbulb moment so to speak? There are three main types of light fixture: spider, uno, and clip-on. The first two rest or screw onto the plastic housing that the bulb goes into, while the clip-on can be gently attached to the bulb itself. Our large lighting selection provides practically infinite ways to personalise a room’s look and feel. Choose from a range of light fittings, like ceiling or pendant, to make your home shine. And when it’s time for a refresh, all it takes is a new shade.

I’m always trying to figure out how to Macgyver things around my house to make them work better, but two things have been bugging me for years – crooked lamp shades, and super affordable IKEA lamp shades that frustratingly-enough only fit Ikea lamps! Today I’m happy to share how after a lot of trial and error and walking the aisles of the hardware stores, I finally figured out a good solution to both of these lamp shade issues. Optional: hold these three pieces together by covering the rubber flange and lamp shade ring with Gorilla Glue in step 2, before placing the metal washer on top. This still allows you to remove the lampshade but the “adaptor” is permanently fixed onto it.
