Valentines Day!

"Love is an emotion of strong affection and personal attachment. Love is also a virtue representing all of human kindness, compassion, and affection; and "the unselfish loyal and benevolent concern for the good of another". Love may also be described as actions towards others (or oneself) based on compassion, or as actions towards others based on affection.(Wikipedia)

Lamp Galore

I have a HUGE passion for lighting, and specifically lamps. I like them striking, and different, complimentary, yet comical! Their shapes should echo the surroundings, and colour or spark should envigorate a room. Lamps are truly the easier decorative art you can move in and out of a design scheme. Here are some of my favourites....ps: stay tunes for some great lamp inventory on my upcoming eshop!
Enjoy!
