New Lamp

Lamplight
I've had a thing for this Aidan Gray lamp for several years.
Alas, it's way out of my budget as all Aidan Gray lamps are.
It's also sold out.

But several months ago I happened upon this lamp at 
It sort of has the same feeling. 
A few days ago I discovered it was on clearance for $34.97.
Last night I found a 25% coupon online, good only till store closing on Wednesday at 9pm. 
 I immediately started calling local stores to find one.
To my delight, I finally found one at Norman and made a quick trip to get it.

But you know what?
I don't really have a spot for it. 
I don't really need a lamp.
I was just obsessed with that Aidan Gray one and now I have a cheap knock off 
that I really don't need.

I'm sure I'll figure out the perfect spot for it eventually.
I hope I don't regret buying it. 

Here are other Aidan Gray lamps I love.



I don't usually buy things I don't need just cause it's a bargain.
Actually, it's my rule not to buy things just cause they are on sale.

Feeling like I shouldn't have bought it today.

Do you have buyer's remorse often?
I usually don't but am having pangs of it today.

Be Still My Heart.....

It's only Home Accessories for Goodness Sakes!

I just discovered this...


I think this is just about the most perfect kitchen and sitting room imaginable.


I didn't know about this catalog of delights till today.


Did you know about this company?






I absolutely love the lamp above. It's similar to one I created. See it here - lamp. Mine was free except for the cost of paint and fabric to cover the shade.

This one below is expensive...but it's beautiful....a great inspiration.



look at this shade below...that might inspire the next shade I create.


I'm a sucker for anything mercury glass....


Love this little urn lamp too.
Is that chicken wire over the shade? Nice effect!


and this one....


This one looks to be covered in barnacles...like it was at the bottom of the sea for decades and then washed upon shore. 



Lots more goodness in the pages of this online catalog. 

Tell me...did you already know about Aidan Gray?
