People often buy ceiling fans for their valuable functionality. The ability of a fan to circulate the air in your home can make the environment feel much more pleasant, especially when the conditions are warm. Even if function is first in your mind, it's important to look for a fan that can augment the look of your home. While some people favor white ceiling fans, the plain look of this style may be unappealing to others. If you're looking for a fan that stands out a little more, here are some options to shop for when you visit your local home furnishings store.

Wood

You'll find all sorts of ceiling fans that feature wood. While the center mechanism of the fan will be made of metal, the fan blades are made of wood. This look can add style to the room, and there are many different wood options to consider. You'll want to think about what other wooden elements are present in the space in which you'll be installing the fan. For example, if you have a hardwood floor that is chocolate brown, buying a fan with chocolate brown wooden blades will tie in well and elevate the overall look of the room.

Wicker

Another option that you'll find as you browse through a home furnishings store is a ceiling fan with wicker blades. This material provides a light, airy look that many people favor. It can work well if you have wicker furniture in the room — for example, a wicker chair in the corner of your room or a wicker side table. Some wicker ceiling fans have somewhat of a tropical look, as the fan blades can sometimes be shaped like large leaves. For someone who enjoys traveling to tropical destinations, this design can conjure up pleasant thoughts of travel.

Brushed Aluminum

If you favor a look that is more modern, a ceiling fan made of brushed aluminum can be a good option. You'll typically find that these fans not only have blades that are made of this material, but the center mechanism and even the hardware will also have a brushed appearance. A lot of people have brushed metal accents throughout their homes, including doorknobs, light fixtures, furniture, and decorative pieces. If your home has these elements, a brushed aluminum ceiling fan can offer a complementary look. Browse these and other fan options at your local home furnishings store.

About Me

As a teenager, I joined my local swim team and soon became a champion swimmer. I have been swimming my entire life, and my love for water pushed me to purchase a home with a large in-ground pool. Strangely enough, after years of swimming I had no idea how to take care of the pool. I knew that I needed to add chemicals to get rid of potentially dangerous bacteria, and I also knew that chemicals kept algae at bay. I didn't know how to choose from hydrogen peroxide, salt, or chlorine additives. I definitely had no idea about shock, and I didn't know how many chemicals to add. After some trial and error, a very green pool, and a necessary draining, I figured it out. I have compiled for you a number of blogs and resources so you do not have to make costly mistakes like me.
