Shabby Chic - Designer Lighting
I absolutely love these lamps, I love them so much that I own a pair and have used them in a few of my clients homes recently, after seeing mine they couldn't resist!
I will be using them in my new living room. I am not crazy about vintage lighting unless it has been totally rewired which can be costly and because I have so many vintage pieces I really want to have some modern accents to freshen up the look.The pictures really don't do them justice and they are the perfect modern accent for a shabby, cottage chic living room, bedroom or office. The base is gorgeous , leaded crystal and they are stunning.
If your not into the roses they are equally as fabulous with a white silk drum
or ivory linen drum shade
My makeover is progressing rather slowly, maybe now that it is cooler I will start moving a little faster. I have been getting busier with my design business and of course my makeover is last on the list. But I did make a paint choice .... after careful consideration I have decided to go with "Ultra Hide White". I am tiring of the many faces of white, they seem to be too dull, too dirty, too non committal and have decided it is time to go for the pure, clean, white, white. This helped my decision...
Our home does not have a lot of natural light and the beige white from the previous owners has got me down so I am going for bright white, I am softening the look by using an eggshell finish and the contrast should make my vintage pieces look much better, so we will see....

Fabulous lamps. Going over to your website right now to look at them. My son has decorated with a lot of black and those lamps would really pop in his apartment. :)
