Lighting

Ah, lighting. I have seen so many delicious kinds of lighting in the past few days that I need to post a few.

First, the solar power LED lanterns from the Elsewares shop:





While it's marketed as an outdoor latern it would be lovely to carry into the bedroom for some nice cuddle lighting. Specially the blue, the Moon Jar.

Also, feathered lights.

First the string of feathered christmas lights found here:



Beautiful, whimsical, and possible fire hazard? I'd love to be able to craft a hack version as long as it wasn't dangerous. It would look lovely with blue feathers.

And the winged lightbulb by Ingo Maurer (and apparently there's a distribution place for me to visit in Dallas):





Absolutely adorable. And yet another thing to perhaps imitate in craft. This particular lamp is touch activated, and while I could never do something like that, at least attacthing wings to a lightbulb couldn't be that tricky. Getting it to work and not be a fire hazard would be nice too, though cute nonfunctional art, little flying lightbulbs on strings over a work desk, would be quite nice too. To represent the unlit ideas I have yet to catch.
