Always a lot of lamps

 In a house like hours, especially during the dark months of the year, there are never enough lights. 

Some years back I did manage to get some lamps that would match the existing lamp in our guestroom. That lamp comes from Mattias' family. I really liked the idea to have some wall lamps over the bed so that people could have proper light reading in bed. 

So, I was lucky and I do not remember anymore (it was 2019) in which circumstances, I managed to get hold of such lamps. 

The lamps

Putting them up was not exactly straightforward. You need the right cable, switch, plug, anything and then you need also to have telepathy and understand how I would like you to put them. 
Well, at the time, Mattias had some time to do the task but the telepathic part didn't work overly smoothy.

The switches

The end result, at least on the wall side, is as it was supposed to be in my head. Not exactly the cabling....
