Pawpaw ointment and notebook conduct an interrogation of the suspect.
As you probably realised, I am a little picky, which has made choosing the perfect lamps for my bedroom a bit of a challenge. Once I find the lamps I like (must.have.matched.pair), I usually find they are discontinued when I finally free up funds to purchase them.
Discontinued, or beyond reasonably and pragmatically expensive or…just wrong because even thought they were angled desk/task lamps in a nickel finish they were not the right shape, colour or right shade of nickel…or they were just…not right. I may not always be exactly sure what I do like, but I definitely know when it’s a “no” or a “not in my house, sunshine”.
Luckily for my picky-ness and my budgetary constraints, I discovered while checking the Ikea site that they made a specific desk/task lamp in nickel. And at $39.95, getting two of them was a reasonable proposition. Hells year.
So now I have two lamps and that special righteous joy that comes from the perfection of symmetry and not losing sight of your aesthetic principles in spite of the challenges presented by product availability, range and pricing.
