Holy crap guys, how awesome is the Book Rest Lamp!? You know… for those of you who still read actual books. (I say “those of you” because I’ve totally become a Kindle convert.)
From its adorable description:
Whilst you’re all tucked up in bed reading your favourite fairy-tale, horror story, glamour model biography, you can read to the glow of this clever and uncomplicated lamp. Made of frosted glass it gives off a soft light, ideal to read to but also doubles as a book rest ensuring you never lose your page.But this is no ordinary run-of-the-mill book stand, sit your favorite book on top of the lamp and look. You’ve made a house. It’s just one of those simple design gems that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
This convenient little guy is currently on sale right now, over on Amazon.
This is fantastic! And paperbacks all the way forever for me.
just don’t put the book on there when it is actually lit up… FIRE HAZARD!
I worried about that, too.
Maybe it uses LEDs (which don’t produce much heat)? The light in the picture doesn’t really look like LED light, though.
That was my first thought too!
CFL’s don’t produce heat so you could probably use that in it. And CLF’s come in all kinds of colours now.
Do any of you own this lamp? I want to give it as a gift, but I’m feeling a little sticker shock from the various websites.
That is so cute, I think I need one 🙂 In fact two one for me and one for my man 🙂
