now that we have nice matching nightstands, i’ve been searching for nice matching lighting! i love the idea of sconces because i love all the space it leaves on the nightstand, but i’m thinking we need lamps to kind of… ground the nightstands? or something? i have no idea what i’m talking about. anyway, i did a roundup of bedroom lighting – and everything is under $100! (don’t be mad, some are $99. sorry.)

THE LAMPS

ROW ONE land of nod isosceles table lamp / ikea tisdag sconce / target gourd shaped lamp
ROW TWO home depot chrome accordian swing arm lamp / lampsplus possini gold leaf obelisk table lamp / cb2 ada white lamp
ROW THREE west elm orb table lamp / urban outfitters industrial sconce / target owl perch lamp

did you have a good valentines day? yeah, i know it was many days ago now, but mine was fantastic. we saw boyz ii men perform at morongo casino. it was ridiculous and amazing. we had ceviche and margaritas at one of our favorites, red o. we went to the lacma for the stanley kubrick exhibit (which in my opinion was underwhelming… tim burtons was way better). gideon skipped the flowers this year and got me a vintage leather wallet which i LOVE and russian nesting dolls. he’s good at presents. so i made him the girliest cutiest breakfast i could. i found this midcentury bench ON SALE at a thrift store and knew the cats would claim it for themselves. they love it. they also love this $10 tapestry art i found which so seems like it would be hanging in a hotel room in a howard johnsons in the 70s. we also went to the atwater farmers market and can’t seem to ever stop eating tacos now.
