Lampshades

Hello! Did you have a nice weekend? I had an amazing one spending time with the people I love and filling up on Adriano Zumbo sweets. Heaven. Pure heaven. It was worth waiting in the queue to get into his shop.

I wanted to start the week by sharing with you three lampshades I have been attracted to lately for the way in which they appear to float in mid air and because they would make an amazing focal point in a room. It is all about the lighting for me in these rooms.
