Monster Lamps = Fabulous Accessories
Giant lamps can double as a light source and tabletop accessory. I say, the bigger, the better! I was perusing Tobi Fairley's portfolio and noticed how she uses an oversized, and often colorful, lamp in just about every space she designs. Her accessories are minimal, which keeps the overall look clean and polished. I know lamps can get expensive, but if you think of it as a two-for-one deal, where you'll save on having to buys lots of additional accessories, it may be an investment worth every penny! How do you feel about oversized lamps? Do you ever give lamps much thought? I'm especially loving the green ones below!!!

ReplyDeleteLamps!!
ReplyDeleteNot only can they provide the necessary pop of colour as they do in these wonderful pics, but they can also make us look so much more glamorous at night!
Down with overhead lighting and up with the mood enhancement of lamps!!!

I love all of these! It's those simple shapes and pops of colour that really add a lot of style and personality to a space!
ReplyDeletei love the tall and skinny gold lamps. i feel like lamps are often overlooked but not in these spaces above! they add so much.
ReplyDeleteThose pops of color really are a knock out! Jonesing over the tall skinny gold lamps...must buy!
ReplyDeleteThese lamps make my mouth water! I love all of them!!
ReplyDeleteLamps are amazing and I always took it for granted that a lamp would be part of every room! You can find such great bases at thrift stores and estate sales and buy new modern shades online... so cheap and like new!

My Chinese Lamps are so beautiful I put them on my living room and they look great!
ReplyDeleteFor some reason I find the majority of lamps I see in stores to be soo ugly! These are all gorgeous though, I wonder where all the fab lamps are hiding!
