Because of Freakerz, I go into taoabao again... :bleah: :bleah:

This time I look at lights. More like table and floor lights. I don't know why I'm so into lights. :dunno: :dunno:

Previously I got 2 Artemide table lights from Lust during their 30% discount. Now looking at tb, I think I can get another 30% off.. haa...

I am looking at a floor light for my living rm as the cove light is not bright enough for my newspaper reading.. :bleah:

But wife been stopping me when I show her this is the light I want.

artemide.jpg

She say too big for living room... :bleah: :bleah: :bleah: :bleah:

Then I saw this

【乐灯】artemide 客厅卧室灯 带草帽的小女孩 个性三臂落地灯

T1Pia3XkpaXXasF0I9_103106.jpg_310x310.jpg

Not too bad. Smaller hear. Think she won't oppose as much.. :notti:

Then I saw thisss..

飞利浦灯具 Ledino II代 LED 落地灯灯 69066 黑色/灰色 简约欧式

T1wwc1XeBaXXXXXXXX_!!0-item_pic.jpg_310x310.jpg

Even smaller head... But at 2.5W power, it may not be enough for my papers..
