added by Margaret Everton to Adding Personal Touch
Working with this library corner and lovely winged chair (http://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/50170/list/The-Wing-Chair), this stack of books to serve as a custom/adjustable lamp table adds a discreet and surprising personal touch.

Nor this color-coordinated slipcovered wingback.
added by Shawn Gauthier to Create Page-Turning Design with Books
The height of a lamp is important: It works best at eye level when you’re sitting down. If your lamp seems too low, build a stand from extra books — add and remove until the height is just right.
