Hour 18 Nightstand Challenge.

I‘m one of those annoying people who only keep their current read on their nightstand. Rest assured; there IS a drawer underneath full of pens, page flags, eyebag cream, lip balm, and a mound of Book Depository bookmarks.

Kaye Is the lamp old ? It reminds me of a 50s lamp. Beautiful. 6y
Melissa_J Wow, that lamp is awesome!! I don‘t keep books on my nightstand either, not even my current read. Funnily enough, my bedroom is one of the few rooms in our house that is usually book-free (print-wise at least. I always have an e-reader in a drawer in my nightstand). 6y
