Decorative Pulls for your Ceiling Fan
Even though your ceiling fans are above the area where most
people notice them, and they’re intended to be purely
functional, there’s no reason you can’t add a little pizzazz
to their otherwise utilitarian look. The fancy fan pulls
that are on the market today can add sparkle and beauty
while making it even easier to turn your fan on and off or
change the speed. By choosing a fan pull that catches
people’s attention, you’ll be adding to your home décor and
making an impression on your guests. In addition, you can
probably find a pull that will fit into the theme of your
room or one that is related to one of your hobbies for a
more personal touch.
Miniature Works of Art
You can have a lot of fun choosing a fan pull from the wide
variety of them that are available. Many of them have been
designed by skilled artisans all over the world and are sold
online. Many of the decorative pulls are made of metal to
match the metals in your home, and some are made of ceramic,
resin, and wood as well. There are even original pieces made
of blown glass that you can purchase from the artist’s
website. Your ceiling fan probably came with an 8” chain
that can easily be connected to the chain on the fan pull.
If you’d like to have an even longer chain, it can be
purchased by the foot from home decorating stores.
Fan pulls come in an amazing array of sizes, shapes, colors,
and finishes. The artists who create them are obviously
trying to design showpieces, because many of the pulls
you’ll find are worthy of being in a gallery. For children’s
rooms you can find baseball gear, dinosaurs, cartoon
characters, superheroes, and pirates. You’ll also find pulls
that will fit in with the décor of your other rooms as they
come in vintage looks, nautical, contemporary, Asian,
Victorian, floral, animals, and just about anything else you
could want.
Beaded Pull Chains for that Custom Look
Another type of decorative fan pull you can find online are
those made of crystals and beads. These little beauties come
in all different colors to match your decor, and they shine
with a reflective glow as they radiate the sunlight that
comes into the room. These fan pulls are very different from
most of the other shapes that are on the market, and we all
know how well Swarovski crystals can make a room glitter.
Let Your Unique Personality Shine Through
Of course, the fan pull you choose doesn’t have to be ornate
and fancy. You may prefer to choose something that reflects
your personality or the function the room is used for. For
example, if you have a pool room, you can find an 8-ball
pull to attach to your ceiling fan. If you want to bring a
little of the outdoors in, you can add butterflies, flowers,
frogs, ladybugs, and a variety of other elements from nature
as fan pulls. For those who are into sports, there are many
pulls that feature your favorite sports teams or a variety
of different balls including soccer, golf, tennis, and
basketball.
Wouldn’t a Fancy Pull be a Great Gift?
Do you have someone on your gift list that is difficult to
buy for? You might want to give them a unique pull for their
ceiling fan. No one will expect to get this great gift, and
it’s practical for anyone with a fan. If you choose
something that truly reflects their personality or
interests, they’re sure to love it. For instance, if your
mother has a dining room that’s decorated with pinks and
reds, you might choose a ceramic pull that’s hand-painted
with roses. Of course, there are no end of choices for the
little ones on your list who probably already have far more
toys than they can play with.
