DIY Wall Art

This is a little craft I've had my eye on all summer... I keep seeing new variations and I love them all. My problem is coming up with a quote, there are just too many!

Task Lamps

I want these. 

But I could settle for this. 

I've seen them called architect lamps, pharmacy lamps, and task lamps. Either way, I'm sold. 

Found via i suwanne.

Craiglist

Have any of you ever used Craiglist? I haven't and quite honestly, I've only heard creepy things about it. But in my recent search for furniture for Hermione and mine's house I decided to check it out. It was soooo easy. It gives you a list of cities where they are located, you pick the one closest to you (South Bend). I clicked furniture, I typed in Desk, and I put my max at $30 and 49 hits. Now some are fairly boring, run of the mill finds, but some are ridiculously cool. Like this. 

This desk is form some old school building and comes with chairs. How freaking cool is that? Think of how cool that could look. A little sanding and either some varnish or paint and this is a top notch addition to any house and it comes with such a great story! Best part? $25. Hallelujah! 

Or what about this? They must not have any idea what a find this is or else this art deco desk would be waaay more than $30. 

Ugh I'm in Heaven.
