I have wanted this lamp for quite some time now because it fits in so perfectly with my primitive decor. I did not order it because it was a little pricey and I just did not really need another lamp.  I showed my aunt the lamp because she is also very much into the primitive decor.The same aunt I showed the picture of the lamp to, asked my husband to do some work for her around her home. M...

During a recent trip to Walmart, I purchased this 4 pack of lamps, which includes a floor lamp, two table lamps and an accent lamp.  They are an espresso finish metal with leather-look shades...just the thing I had been looking for to match my traditional living room.  Despite their bargain basement pricetag, these lamps are simple and elegant, classically styled to go with nearl...

Wherever I have a reading chair, I like to have a standing floor lamp. I recently bought a Better Homes and Gardens Swing Arm Floor Lamp from Walmart. The lamp is just beautiful, and looks much more expensive than what I paid for it. It has a rubbed bronze finish, and comes with a stretched fabric shade. It has 3-way lighting, which I love, and so requires the use of a 3-way bulb, for...

I love to place accent lights throughout my home because I think they add to the ambience, and help to create a very cozy feel, in addition to regular lamps. This particular lamp is in my bedroom. My bedroom is decorated primarily in burgundy, rose, and blue. One of the accent pieces I have is a burgundy afghan throw with a burgundy feather trim. When I found this small lamp in burgun...

Lamps have a large impact on the look of a room, not only in the amount of light they put out, but their style also plays a role. When looking for lamps for my family room, I had an idea of what I was looking for. Next, I had to find it. I love the traditional styles that never seem dated. After looking in a few stores and not finding what I wanted, I went to JCPenney at my local...

Table lamps can make or break design choices in your home, and finding a cheap decent looking table lamp is a easy task. I picked target to purchase a table lamp from and I managed to stumble onto the Flagger Table Lamp for only $19.99. This lamp has a very contemporary look to it, the lamp features a wood body and a solid cream colored lamp shade which also provides very clean lighting.The dem...

Target is definately the place to go if you want Asian themed interior decor at a great price. I purchased this Zen themed paper lamp for $39.99 and I have to say that it looks great in my apartment. You will notice that this lamp doesn't give off extreamly bright light but more of a soft yellow light. The lamp is simple to assemble since you just attach three poles. The paper shade on the ...

For my dorm room, I needed some kind of dim light that added ambiance to the already sterile environment.  Target was having a college dorm room sale and was selling a paper floor lamp.  Basically, it's a black stick centered on a small black base with a light bulb on the end.  Over this, a paper-like covering goes around the lamp.  It creates a nice earth-toned light br...

Do you need a magnifying glass to see some small print when you are reading like many other people do?  Then, you will want to get one of the Daylight Armchair Magnifying Lamp-Satin Silver from Kmart.  This light costs $189.99 and it looks great in any room.This makes reading a breeze because of the magnifying glass.  It moves to where you want it to be and I like it a lot. ...

My apartment didn't have ceiling lights which was weird because all of the other apartments I've seen in this area have some sort of lighting in the ceiling. Those switches have to turn something on! So for awhile I was living in the dark because of this. I finally went out to look for a lamp.I went to Urban Outfitters because I know they have really stylish and cute home furnishings. A...

We bought this for my father in law. He is another grown man that is fascinated with toys and things that kids like (NO, he’s not senile!)! I think it’s great! It makes gift buying for him easy…I just pay attention to the things my husband likes (he’s exactly the same as his Dad!) and BINGO! He loves it! This Plasma Lamp is one of those things! Before buying it, I wat...

There is nothing more collectible to me than all items Beatles. It is my biggest interest, and I am an avid collector of their memorabilia, both old and new. I would like to tell you about one of my favorite pieces and something you can still find out there. In the late 1990's, the company that oversees all things Beatles, Apple Corp. released a large amount of products with the fab four in...

I've purchased several of these desk lamps now, actually there is one in almost every bedroom.  They are pretty decent lamps for the price, only $10 per lamp and after putting in an energy efficient bulb in every one (CFL-dimmer acceptable) we can leave the lamps on even when we walk out of the room for awhile without worrying that we are using additional energy needlessly.  Howev...

BEWARE of buying any touch base lamp from Pottery Barn Kids.   I purchased a Pottery Barn touch base lamp at full price from the local Pottery Barn Kids store when outfitting my daughter's new bedroom with all Pottery Barn decor.  We loved the fact that the 3 settings on the touch base lamp let her use the lowest setting as a night light.  It was beautiful, but it didn&#...

I'm a very picky person when it comes to shopping. If it's not exactly what I want, I rarely buy it. Why waste money on something I won't be happy with 6 months from now?I bought this lamp a few years ago. I love its simplicity, size and design. It's a quality lamp and looks nice wherever I use it. An easy to clean shade is a bonus for me. Unfortunately, I only have on...

Philippines has plenty of local products that are world class in quality and design. Be it native footwear, home décor and furniture, etc. One of the raw materials in use to produce quality and great home décor is capiz shells. This material can be used to form different images and can be as colorful as it can be to give the products more attractive in vision. On our house blessin...

This lamp is a gift from my mother-in-law. She really knows how to choose beautiful art stuffs, including this lamp. She said that she bought this lamp on a garage sale. The lamp is not that tall, and of average height (about 60 cm tall or so), has white-colored lampshade, and the ornament below the lampshade is of lotus leaves. The color combination is just terrific. The vase-like bottom is ra...

Decorating for college is tough. You don’t have much money and you don’t have much space (most of the time), but you’re making your living environment…well, livable. Usually, college students end up decorating with thrift store stuff, IKEA, or (if their lucky) their parent’s money. Lately, big-box stores like Target and WalMart have picked up on this need for mode...

This is a great gift idea but beware when you buy this you probably will want to keep it! I was visiting my sister in Lake of the Ozark and she took me to this candle shop. When I walked in I was impressed with the smell that was in the store. I asked the owner what she used to make the shop smell so great because it didn't look like it was coming from the candles. She showed me this Effusi...

When I saw this desk lamp at Costco, I was skeptical at first about its light that it boasted was equal to the "full spectrum of the sun".  I decided to try it out, so after taking it out of the box and assembling it in about fifteen minutes or so, it sure surprised me. It gave off a bright, but softer glow that was definitely not as yellow as my previous lamp. The design of th...
