Day 85 - March 26, 2010

I don't know if I've ever mentioned this on here, but I really love Ikea! We've gotten quite a bunch of stuff from them, and we've been happy with every purchase. The furniture is solid, the accessories are fun and unique, and it's very reasonably priced! One of the cool things we got were these nifty window shades for the study. They are a bunch of thin sticks tied together to make a shade. And this particular shade is right near that nifty orange light I posted a picture of a few days back. While I was getting my stuff ready for a charity event tomorrow night, I noticed the cool orange reflection off of the shade made a really neat design. So with my trusty camera in hand, the final result is what you see (plus a little bit of enhancement to make that orange REALLY pop!)

Until Tomorrow,

Day 81 - March 22, 2010

Well the rain is back again today. I guess we can't have beautiful sunny days every day! Today I was in the study, getting some work done, when I took a minute to really notice how cool the lamp in here really is. Ikea tends to make some really neat stuff! This particular lamp lets you put in a colored insert, so you can have either orange, or blue. We've only had the orange in since we brought it home years ago - it's Eric's favorite color. I decided to snap a few pictures, to see if I could come up with something cool and interesting, and lo and behold - the cool orange lamp from Ikea - in a fun new light (ha ha! pun intended!)

Until Tomorrow,
