I checked before we traveled to Houston (where my family lives) and then they only had the floor display in stock (unlike the website said). I stood and touched the display. I pouted and begged and once I was told that I could not purchase the display, I LITERALLY teared up right there on teh showroom floor.<br /><br />Ended up buying one off of eBay and paying too much for it. I was obsessed. And I still love it:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07629875486308158225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2987776780341574215.post-1575481788808512852013-11-20T19:52:36.747-06:002013-11-20T19:52:36.747-06:00Not only do I love the way they look in your house...Not only do I love the way they look in your house but I love your story!

I love that you and so many other folks out there would get so worked up about an IKEA $20 lamp. I would have told this same tale at a dinner party with my (lovely, but not bloggy/design-minded) friends and they would have tuned me out entirely. I was laughing and nodding while reading this! What a great lady that friend-of-a-friend is.
