Light it Up

We have a serious lamp problem in our house.  They're all ugly and do not match the rest of the decor.  But they were mostly all hand-me-downs (read: free) and for some reason I have a really difficult time picking out lamps that I like.  I also don't enjoy spending money on something like a new lamp.  But its time to remove all the ugly lamps and replace them with new fabulous lamps.  Or in the case of our guest room, to add a lamp on the bedside table.

Just pitiful, I know.  My mother, being the interior decorator that she is, is quite ashamed of my lamp collection.  So when she spotted a pair of beauties at HomeGoods (such a great store!  It's TJMaxx but for, well, goods for the home, hence the name...), for only $29.99 each, she jumped on them and insisted that I buy them for our bedroom.  And I couldn't aruge with the price, or the fact that they matched our bedroom perfectly.  So slowly I'm getting out of my lamp rut!




Yes, we still need a bed/headboard...all things in time.



So two lamps down, at least three to go...
