My sweet friend Katelyn brought this beautiful himalayan salt lamp to me as a gift when she came to stay with me. I replaced my bedside lamp with it, and I cant even express what a difference it has made in the atmosphere in my bedroom. It is soooo beautiful to look, that it just makes my heart swoon. I love that it is much softer than my normal lamp to read by, so James can actually fall asleep easier while I read. I like to stay up and read and he snoozes within second of hitting the pillow. And, James like to lick my lamp. I licked it once or twice, but he keeps licking it, ha ha. Beyond its yummy taste, Ive never seen a prettier lamp. And reading about them, its awesome to know all of their benefits, beyond just their beauty.
Now, between this and having the record player in the bedroom, Id say its just about perfect. Now I just need to get my Portishead Dummy album on vinyl, and it will be complete.
I absolutely love this! So extremely beautiful.

What an awesome gift!
ReplyDeleteI love mine! I bought one about 4 years back from a health food store in the little town I was living in at the time. I had received a candle holder version and I loved it so much that I wanted a big one for my bedroom. They do give off the softest most comforting light. Just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteso awesome! i want to get some candle holders for around the house too! love.
DeleteI have two of these at home and one at work. They are wonderful!!!
ReplyDeleteMy birds (cockatiels and a parakeet) love our lamp. They like to cuddle up, lick the sides, and even climb up on top to roost! Smart little critters. :)
ReplyDeletewow that thing is cool, i've seen them before such a pretty piece!
ReplyDeleteMy husband gave me one like this for my last birthday. I don't think a day has gone by without having it on. My cat occasionally licks mine. ;)
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! Something like that would be great for me and my boyfriends room as we're the same way -I read and he sleeps xD
ReplyDeleteThat lamp is so cool. My boyfriend has one very similar...I need to get one!

and just got it in today! Thanks for this post! Already enjoying the warm glow : )
Did you know it is an excellent essential oils diffuser? I often put five drops of lavand oil on my salt lamp, it is a good help for sleeping. So you have the light, the smell and the benefits twice.
ReplyDeletethat is a wonderful idea! thanks!
DeleteI've always loved these but never owned one. Have you noticed any other benefits from it besides it's visual beauty? How tall is the one you have?
ReplyDeleteyes! ive been able to breathe and sleep better with it it seems! this one is about 9" tall... :)
DeleteI love salt lamps, and being from Bristol I love Portishead (they are from just by here)
