Home Accessories by Dana Gibson...(Via Made By Girl)

I'm so happy to introduce you all to Dana Gibson. I've known about her for a little while now & am so excited to finally feature her lovely work on Made By Girl! Dana has been a CERAMIC designer for 15 years, creating some of the MOST beautiful lamps & vases I've seen!

If I had to pick a FAVORITE lamp, I'd definitely say it's her cowhide design, which I'm certain would look amazing my guest bedroom! I probably would've chosen the pink croc for my own room, BUT I do have to consider that my guy sleeps there too ha! There's something so chic about a black lampshade don't you think?? I'm so glad I chose black lampshades throughout my own home.

I've been SPOTTING more & more BLACK shades on lamps everywhere I look. Magazines, design books, blogs & so on. Do you have any black lampshades in your home??

I'm so blown away by Dana and her European inspired porcelain designs. She recently branched out into pillows and tole painted baskets, which you can see here and here.

I L-O-V-E her style & would even love to collaborate with her one day! Enjoy!

These are really pretty. We do have a few black lampshades in our house, but I'm thinking of picking up some more. They say a shot of black always adds some drama to a room and I totally agree. Thanks for sharing!

I LOVE black lamp shades! I got mine about 5 years ago, at our local lamp outlet/store. I was very discerning about the type I wanted, and luckily, they had them for $18.99 a piece! It was a steal. I did NOT want fabric, I wanted the actual lampshade to be paper or something, and I wanted the interior to be gold. like a strong gold leaf. LOVE LOVE LOVE this!

Dana Gibson...one to remember. She definitely has a great, classic sense to her design. These pops of color would look great in any room, but they would certainly stand out in a room with a white backdrop.
