I’ve been toying with the idea of hanging vintage swag lamps in the bedroom to give the space a feel that’s a little less Danish Modern, a little more “Eastern harum.” So I thought I might present to you a recent collage I made of bedside lamps that don’t require bedside tables. Some are vintage, some are a little more modern. What do you think? (Click on the photo to arrive at the original Flickr photo.)
terrific look. do it! i rly like this example, from the brick house trickmybrick.blogspot.com: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AAcjIBzbHH8/SrcxacteEUI/AAAAAAAADkY/vRtMCcZRCfQ/s1600-h/DSC06997.jpg
geez, I’m generally not one to nit-pick, but that 4th photo down is SO depressing. I wanna make the bed and re-hang both the light and the print.
I’ve always loved this look. I say go for it!
Libby, I love that example — and I also love the T-Rex painting in the corner. What the…? Awesome.
My Little Apartment — I realize that 4th photo isn’t up to design blog par, but I’m trying to break the mold on BackGarage by including a little harsh reality. Too much perfection makes everyone feel like they can’t live up. At least that’s my opinion.
Always loved the paper laterns and the glow they provide. The difficulty with hanging lamps is trying to camouflage the cord that inevitably goes from some outlet near the floor, up to the ceiling, and then down to the lamp. Not pretty.

This is a great idea. I love the melted icicle (what a wierd word to type!) shape in the last photo!
