Update your Living Room!
You of course have thought about what to start with if you want to update your living room; it concerns not only furniture, but also wall colors and entire decoration. If you are a fan of rich colors it does not mean that your curtains should be in vibrant shades of red, black or yellow, choose more neutral colors. We are sure that after a month or two, you will be tired of those dramatic bold colors and would like use not strong hues. That is a good idea to use additional wall decor in order to bring more charm and fashion to your living room. Focus should be particularly on details as they create that subtle but warm and inviting atmosphere in your living room. But do not overload it with too many accessories as they may create unattractive look. Moreover, try to find items from the same collection, so that the accessories look similar and have one meaning rather than bringing pieces of different styles, and colors which seem beautiful separately but do not create an appropriate picture if brought together. Make sure that the accessories match the existing living room furniture, especially sectionals and sofas which are mainly the heart of any living room. Remember: keep it simple; it is the best way to create an unforgettable atmosphere in your living room!
Teabag Lamp by Bryan and Anke

Nothing warms the soul like tea. On cold rainy days, frosty winter evenings by the fire, or even a sunny afternoon by the sea, take along Teabag Lamp to shed a warm light on any situtation.
Teabag Lamp really looks like increased copy of common teabag but you should not boil it, - perhaps the device is afraid of water and can spoil. But if you leave it under the sun in the evening it will give you some light as an original night lamp or the table lamp, or – taking into account its size – even the floor lamp.
Teabag lighting is produced of recycled materials and can be also recycled that for sure will gladden everybody who fights for protection of environment. Besides that, the lighting will help economizing the energy because it is operated exceptionally from the sun. The "Tea-Tag" is actually a solar cell, and its sun-charged LED’s are ready for “glow on the go” adventure. But this distinctive feature can prevent using Teabag Lamp as a lighting to those people who live not in sunny California, Abkhazia, Italy or Spain. But it is worth remembering that every good has its consumer.
Teabag Lamp measures approximately 12 inches tall and the “Tea-String” can be used to hang it just about anywhere.
