Reflecting

Mirrors are great decorative tools. Generally you find people placing mirrors in all different places---bathrooms, living rooms, bedrooms, etc. Here are some fun mirrors that I have found in my search for funk.

Mirror One: This is my favorite decorative piece. There are a number of strips, intertwined, which changes the way you appear to be in different angles. Beautiful. It gives you a completely different look from any other mirror.


Mirror Two: Flashback to the Tetris blocks that I posted for the bookcases! Apparently, I can create a funky design made out of Tetris blocks. The best part about this is that if you use the right materials, you can easily change this piece up into whatever you want.

Mirror Three: Splat! It kind of reminds me of Nickelodeon. But, I love it nonetheless. This is pretty fun yet it doesn't feel childlike to me. This definitely belongs in a fun room, not something serious.


Mirror Four: I love this sleek, fun design. This would be good for more of an upscale look. I actually think this would be great if they had a variety of designs.


Mirror Five: This is a great piece, especially for kids. This too would allow you to change up the look of your mirrors with these puzzle pieces. This is definitely not my favorite but different, nonetheless.

Lighting, Part Dos

I know, I know. I haven't written in awhile. Excuse me.

I decided to have another look through the world of lighting once again, this time focusing my search on floor lamps. I thought I'd share some of the lamps that I found and hopefully I can get some input on my next search!

Lamp Uno: I love the sleek simplicity of this design. I can picture this in a very sophisticated room---perhaps even where white is the "pop" of color found in a room.


Lamp Dos: As previously mentioned, I'm quite sure I have a thing for appendages. This reminds me of a person and I love the color orange!



Lamp Tres: I don't like this lamp as much as the first two but I thought it was a little more fun than the first two. I wouldn't purchase it but I found it interesting and different, which is why I'm posting it here!



Lamp Cuatro: I love the enormity of this lamp. It's large yet I don't find it to be over-the-top. It's very sleek and I can picture this lamp being used in a reading area OR for kicks, you can just sit and pose like the woman in this photo endlessly.



Lamp Cinco: This is a more modern look to a commonplace lamp. Love the height and randomness of the piece!



Lamp Seis: This is my favorite lamp. It's beautiful. I love the color and its form. Simple. That is all.
