(NC)-Shorter days during the winter months mean longer nights. Spending more time indoors and in the dark, makes it easy to fall into the 'winter blues.'

Here are some lighting project ideas from The Home Depot that will make the light at the end of the winter tunnel seem closer than you think.

Living room lighting - Lighting in the living room should be decorative and functional. Use lamps to compliment the height and size of your living room - tall lamps for small living rooms and ceiling fixtures for high ceilings.

Back on track - Bad lighting can take the flavour out of a kitchen - literally. Install a track lighting fixture and instantly boost overall light in the room. Track lighting allows you to isolate areas (stove, sink, etc.) you would like the light to shine the brightest on.

Sky's the limit - The sun has an early curfew during the winter months. Skylights cut energy costs and create a refreshing feeling by reminding you the sun is still around during the cold winter season. Velux has an array of skylight options that will brighten up any home.

The right glow - There are two types of bathroom lighting: task and vanity. Place a light fixture above the bathtub or shower to avoid bathing in the dark. For the best results when putting on your face, light fixtures should be mounted on either side of the mirror to eliminate shadows under your chin, eyes and cheeks.

Walking on sunshine - It's hard to find your way to the front door in the dark and even harder when there's snow on the ground. Install solar lights along your walkway to create a warm feeling during the dark winter nights and to make it easier to get to the front door.
