Until just this past Thursday, I've been playing a game of musical lamps. There are some on the walls on the first floor that help. With winter approaching and for just plain old convenience, I knew I needed more, bigger and different. I love this lamp in the photo above that survived the fire. But, I'm sure you can see that it is more decorative.
It's wonderful to be able to get a combination of 10+ floor and table lamps at the Deco Troc in Villefranche for what you would pay for just two floor lamps at regular stores. I am a fan!
I'm not rushing out to place them all over the Chatette just yet. Some clearly had a designated spot when I bought them. Things like that have a way of screaming: "Look at me, Laury...I'm going to be perfect behind that new gray chair!"
Or as Jane says: "You have an eye."
It's not the first time someone told me that. When I saw the Chatette for the first time back in 2001, I was able to see beyond the junk, clutter, and poubelle of the renters. I saw the beauty of the stone, tile, and views; and, felt the romantic feel and history of this place.
I have some thing to work with now. Feeling into the lighting magic of just this spot is an adventure all its own.
Happy Saturday!
