Fabulous lights! Wow. You have the most beautiful blog …
What an amazing table!
Jennifer — yes, amazingly, it is the superchic Tampa Airport.
Franki — couldn’t agree more — isn’t wonderful to see the lamps outdoors and in an airport setting?
You know what I love about the artichoke lights? They are totally overdone in mags, but I adore them in real life. I don’t often see them in person, which makes them phenomenal when you do see them in context.
Lovely images!
I adore this lamp! It is fantastic!
Thanks for the link and the mention!

Oh yes love those lamps!
I love the artichoke lamp but only in other peoples houses (they are hell to dust).
What delicious lighting. It looks like a modern snowflake.
Oooooh… FUN lighting! I believe I will cook some artichokes today… YUM to lighting and YUM to eating artichokes!
Hmmmm… maybe I will borrow one of your images here… photograph my artichokes and paint… that’s a lovely idea… merci!
I love those lamps as well – I have the knock-off at home from Ikea – think I paid $10. Beautiful pics!
How cool…it really does look just like an artichoke!
