So I moved to Brooklyn a few weeks ago (woo!) Which was pretty hectic, hence the lack of updating. But in celebration of me now living in the Big Apple I am posting a ridiculously awesome item inspired by Brooklyn, that is also made by a Brooklyn artist!

And that artist is resurface. She does ridiculously awesome things like printing photographs onto lampshades. This one, called "HI-LIGHT Pendant Lamp" features some of Brooklyn urban graffiti, as does many of her other lamps. And trust me, you can never run out of inspiration when it comes to graffiti in New York.

Resurface has successfully turned seemingly grungy Brooklyn graffiti into an urban-chic lampshade. And there are many, many other ridiculously awesome shades where this one came from!
