pretty cords

I’m setting up a new office (photos probably won’t be ready for a few months, as I just ordered a sofa that’s going to take 10 weeks to arrive) and so have been spending my precious late-night non-working hours browsing the internet for accessories. Though they’re out of my price range, I’m really loving these refurbed vintage lamps from etsy shop EarthSeaWarrior (however, I kind of wish she would rethink her shop name.)

The colored cords are a brilliant contrast to the vintage lamps – and I love cords that are meant to be displayed instead of hidden away (so much easier!) Ursula will also work with you to revamp the cord on an existing light you already own, which is an option with some awesome potential.

Solstice Lamp

I love tripod lamps, and this one is on my current wish list:

It’s the Solstice Lamp from Ample Furniture, a small company making hand-crafted wooden goodness in Seattle. Best part? (Well, besides the red cord, which is obviously amazing,) they offer free shipping in the continental US.

Caffe Streets

Charlie took me to Caffe Streets today because he knew that I would love the design of the interior. He was right – it is probably the prettiest coffee shop I’ve ever been in. The lighting is particularly fantastic. (the coffee was also stellar. and I love their cups.)
