What catches your eye in this space? For me, it was a couple of things - the rugs, the dark banister, the wallpaper and the great use of modern chairs in a complementary color.
But most of all, I loved those lamps!! I'm pretty sure I have that exact pair of busts that I bought from an Etsy dealer several years ago. Here, they look fantastic mounted on columns and wired as lamps. I have always wanted to turn an object into a lamp (and have several candidates in my own home), but I never thought to use these little busts.
I think I'll keep mine as just busts because I love using them as decorative accessories, but I thought this bust lamp concept was great!
Have you ever had a favorite object turned into a lamp?

The wallpaper, just can't see anything but the wallpaper.
ReplyDeleteLove this foyer and everything about the juxtaposition of the modern and traditional. Barbara Cosgrove made some lamps like those a few years back and I still love them, especially with those shades! I have an old dutch coffee tin that is begging me to make into a lamp. This inspires me to do it!
ReplyDeleteThe lamps are Barbara Cosgrove (pretty sure anyway.) I have them as bedside table lamps & love them.
