Here’s a new concept in lighting brought to us by the Japanese manufacturer kyouei. The light lies flat but it transforms into a 3D honeycomb lamp in a matter of minutes (or seconds!). How do you feel about building your own light?
Before: The Honeycomb lies flat
After: The Honeycomb Lamp, 63 Euro

Perfect for every season and occasion: white lanterns, $15 at Pier 1
I was a little sad this week boxing up my Halloween lanterns and I thought what better way to say goodbye to orange glowing pumpkin lights than with a replacement: pristine white lanterns, anyone?
There’s something about white lanterns that feels at once festive and comforting. It will also be a nice touch in your living room as the days shorten and these small orbs glow softly into the November evening.
Go garland or try a few medium-sized battery-operated paper lanterns (below). These will work like magic (and we especially love that there will be no trace of an electric cord).
