Where to Put Small Lamps

My friend Chelsea of Yours Truly recently approached me the chance to participate in a “white box challenge” as a part of her new online home accessory & furnishings store, Joy & Revelry.
She picked an item from her shop and sent it to three bloggers with the challenge of incorporating the item into their homes. The trick was that none of us knew what the item would be! 
I was ecstatic when a pair of tiny lamps showed up on my doorstep.  
This set of Katie Mini Ball lamps is beautiful. I knew I could find a way to incorporate them into my home but where! I played around with them in a few different places but the small scale just didn’t fit any of my usual places. 
Finally I decided that they needed to be on teeny tiny tables! I am slowly working on transforming my office into an office/guest room. These lamps are perfect on these small scale tables I picked up at Target. 
Our loveseat is a sleeper sofa and the tables act as nightstands when we have guests over. 
I added some of my design books on the table to prop up the lamps and give them more substance. I love how they look like pretty jeweled accessories on my tables.  My $50 clearance Target tables look so much more expensive with these pretty lamps on top of them.

    I really like these lamps, and I love the fact that they are small and white. Great way to style them! I'm thinking I might try something similar now.

    My absolute favorite thing is to stack books and put something on top. Love this post and I'm new to your blog 🙂

    Love the small lamps they would be perfect inside a bookshelf.

    Adorable office space. Love those side tables too, what a steal! Does the sofa bed have a twin size bed in it?

      It's actually a full size so two people can sleep on it 🙂

    They look just perfect and so smart to put them on a stack of books. It's the little tricks that help make the biggest impact. And I love love love a good Target clearance find!
