Pink Lamps for the Cure from Mottega

As most of you know, October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month. Mottega is one of the many companies that has joined the fight against this terrible disease and is helping to find a cure by donating a portion of the proceeds from sales of special edition pink products. They have released the Hope Collection which includes two pretty pink lamps that sell for $99 per piece.  Mottega will contribute 10% of Hope Collection and Petal Pink collection sales to Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, with a minimum donation of $25,000 in 2011. Thanks Mottega!

In case you're having a hard time imagining pink lamps in your home, here's a board to show you how they might look in a bedroom. For me, the key to using pink is balancing it with some masculine elements and darker colors to counteract the girly effect that it can have. In this space, the Camille gourd lamps are used with lots of grays and blues.

What do you think of the board? And what are your thoughts on Mottega's Hope Collection? Would you use either of the pink lamps in your house?

And by the way, did you notice that those euro shams are from the Jennifer Lopez collection for Kohl's?!? I'm curious enough about the quality to go see them in person...luckily there's a Kohl's near the Target that I go to. Have any of you seen J Lo's bedding?
