Magic Lamps and Pillow Talk.

I'm in the process of redecorating my bedroom, so today I went looking for a new lamp. I didn't find anything that satisfied what I was looking for, but check these out for some great decorating ideas!

 This one had writing all throughout the interior of the lamp shade and a wooden base.

I think these were supposed to be cherry blossoms painted on the lamps. The loved the texture of the lamp shades. When it comes to lamps, I think the shade is the most important part.

Below: More funky lamp shades. These are a little more modern than the last two. 

Not my style, but still very pretty.

Pffffft.... why I did not spin the lamp shade to avoid the seam is beyond me at this point, lol.

 Above: This one had a ridiculous lamp shade which I refused to photograph, 

but the base speaks for itself.

Above: Love it!!!

Now....

These pillows,

are a different story.

As I have been creating the look for my new room, I have decided that I love the distinction of contrasting rather than matching. Most things will be white, but the accents will have a variety of colors. Most of them will incorporate white, and they will be filled with patterns and colors that play off each other, rather than looking like a set.

 Above & Below: The front pillows both have either white or cream, and these lovely shades of light greens.

This is the perfect example of what I want to do. Look how great these two completely different pillows look together!!!!...... Okay yea, I bought the green one.
