• Instant Refreshment for Your Decor

  During these dog days of summer, try using nautical accents at home to conjure up a cool, breezy day by the sea. We noticed Destination Weddings and Honeymoons magazine recently featured these fabulous bookends as decoration for a beach wedding. We agree, but no wedding necessary!

• Get Real with Hannah Montana

  Going over some of the new table lamp designs, these Hannah Montana lamps caught our eye. Fans of the show (you know who you are) will love these. The teal shade design features a 3D image of the star. The guitar-shaped lamp comes with a built-in speaker. Just plug in your iPod or favorite MP3 device and rock out. Now about those show tickets... Hannah Montana 3D Table Lamp. Hannah Montana MP3 Guitar Table Lamp. Published: 07-15-2008 By John no comments

• Remodel Magazine Shows Off Our Swing Arms

  Our swing arm wall lamps were featured in this month's issue of Remodel magazine. Swing-arms are an often overlooked option for desktop task lighting even though they're great for this context. They're especially ideal for small rooms since they allow you to make the most of your desktop work space. Published: 07-11-2008 By Susanna no comments

• Big Style in the Sooner State

  Builder Jeff Click, a member of our LAMPS PLUS Professionals program, sent us some great photos of a house he's just completed. The home is located in the SilverHawk development in Oklahoma City. Says Jeff, "You can check out a cool photo tour of some of your fixtures we've used...I think that's about 80% stuff you all (LAMPS PLUS) supplied, inside & out." There are dozens of photos online that really give you a great feel for the home. Check out Jeff's great work and let us know what you think! Published: 07-07-2008 By John no comments
