Mirrored Console – Update!

January 14, 2013 by robincharmagne 2 Comments

Hello Pretties,

Hope you all had a great weekend! It was in the 70’s here, really odd for January, but I enjoyed an early celebration dinner with my Sisters at Pappadeaux’s and had an awesome time.

Now, today’s post. Last year I posted a mirrored console table I was styling for my living room. I posted some nice images from Houzz of styles that featured table lamps. I’m sad to say, that table is still sitting naked in my living room. I think lightning will be my first accessory to add to the console. Here are some of my choices for table lamps (clockwise from the top):

v

1 – Cyan Design Bogart Lamp 2 – Possini Euro Design Helix Lamp 3 – Longacre Tall Table Lamp
4 – Stacked Glass Ball Table Lamp 5 – Grant Table Lamp 6 – Mirrored Tile Table Lamp
7 – Shinto Tripod Table Lamp 8 – Mirrored Console Table

I am drawn to the clear acrylic or wrought iron bases with a darker shade, possibly in black or chocolate brown. Which lamp would you choose?

Keep it Pretty,
robincharmagne
