A design dud of double-D proportions

Kelly @ JAX Decor & Design
Throughout the history of interior decorating and design, there have been questionable design decisions. For example.... Avocado and harvest gold appliances. Lavender bathroom fixtures. (I grew up with both). Big & bold flowery wallpaper and upholstery fabric. Basements with dark wood panelling. All cringe-inducing designs that have happily disappeared (for the most part). But just as one bad design bites the dust, there’s a new one just waiting to take its place.....

These are boob lights:














If I ever want my boobs to experience pulsating LED action, maybe I’ll pick up a set ;-) If nothing else, they’ll be good for a laugh or two, and hubby would probably get a kick out of them :-)

These are also boob lights (which were thankfully removed from our ceiling and placed on the floor just like this by my hubby):



No pulsating LED action here – just plain old incandescent (or CFL) bulbs emitting light from glass boobs with a metal nipples.

I’m sure you’ve seen plenty of boob lights – they’re everywhere. They’re pretty much the industry standard when it comes to basic builder lighting. Now, whether or not you ever noticed the striking resemblance between boob lights and real boobs, I don’t know. But I can tell you this – once you realize that a boob light looks like a real boob, the image will be burned into both your mind and retinas and you will NEVER be able to look at a boob light ever again and not see anything else but a real boob.

Just like real boobs, boob lights come in all different colours, shapes, and sizes... with big nipples, little nipples, pointy nipples, flat nipples... each one is unique in its own special way :-)

For your viewing pleasure, I give you a gallery of boob lights (all pics from http://www.lampsplus.com/):
