2012 Tata Steel

I'm watching an excellent Nova special on PBS right now, "Masterpiece," about the painting that might be a previously unknown Leonardo DaVinci drawing!  Absolutely fascinating...  I'm learning a lot about the world of art experts and fraudulent works of art -- how people try to sniff out frauds and how the fraudsters try to fool the experts. 

Excited -- my purchases have started to arrive.  Tonight I opened the box from - get ready for it - LAMPLUST - and was just so struck by how beautiful those LED "burl wood" wall sconces are!  Can't wait to put them up this weekend, darlings! 

In a larger box is the stand-alone oiled-bronze finish towel holder, woooo wooooo!  I didn't open the box but tucked it out of the way until I can open it and assemble the towel holder this weekend.  Hopefully all the pieces will be there for both the wall sconces and the towel holder!  Soon, I hope my upstairs bath will look like a "masterpiece" itself :)
