LIGHTING WEEK continues...and basically it has become "lighting shopping week" for me. LOL! Everyday, I go onto a million websites (or at least the dozens of sites that allow me to use their photos) and I pick out lighting that I like. Usually, in the past, my theme "weeks" have included a good balance of interior design/decor photos and goods for purchase...but not LIGHTING WEEK. This has turned into a single minded focused virtual shopping spree week for me...one in which I don't spend...but I just shop and shop and shop for lighting I like (well errr...I might end up spending...yikes).

So...after putting this collection of table lamps together, I realized I am not very original...I like the same thing. Lots of blue, lots of porcelain, some glass and some linear metal bases. Lots of bubbly round orb like forms. Add in a white lamp shade and there you have what I like. I didn't realize that I was so predictable until I took a step back and looked at all of the table lamps I've picked out...a very Nbaynadamas styled collection indeed. I love all of them by the way...did I mention that?
