I love it if it's an Edison bulb that's under 40W. The light is softer, dimmer, and a warm amber--more like candles. And that softly glowing filament just looks neat.

Otherwise I don't like exposed bulbs. Like what so many people have in their bathrooms--myself included, unfortunately. Too harsh.


Exposed Bulb Lamps: Yay or Nay?

I've never felt like farmers' market prices around Indianapolis were too expensive. But it seems odd to see complaints on an Apartment Therapy site about pricing. Sofas from Crate & Barrel and DWR cost more than sofas from Macy's, but people on here buy them all the time. Throw pillows via boutique shops on Etsy cost more than throw pillows from Walmart, but it's the hand-made pillows I see written about here, not the discount store pillows. If it's okay to pay more for higher quality and labor-intensive furniture and decorations, then why not for higher-quality and labor-intensive food?

This was my favorite place in last year's Small Cool. It was featured in a house tour about a year ago.
