Muuto Unfold Pendant Lamp

I can’t believe that I haven’t really worked on the blog since February – quite slack of me, isn’t it?

I’m at a crossroads with the blog at the moment – I’m not sure whether it’s the most effective way to continue showing my home updates; Instagram kind of has taken over that forum.

In any case, there are merits to using a blog – at least I can write down and explain the process with more depth for each step of the home.

But I’ve got a couple of weeks until I need to renew my blog so I’ll have a think and let you know then.

In the meanwhile, we finally got around to getting some pendant lamps installed in our kitchen. We chose the Muuto Unfold Pendant Lamp – I’ve always loved it for its unique material construction and of course, its Scandinavian heritage which suits us perfectly!

We were really surprised with the caps for the pendant at the top of the light – they came in a white/cream (beige for a lack of a better word… you know, one of my ‘favourite’ colours). I guess it was to match people’s ceilings and though this might sound sacrilegious to the Muuto die-hards out there… it was kind of ugly. Especially since our ceiling is pure white! So we did what we do best – we spray painted it black and now it looks much more appeasing to the eye.

Nothing ever goes to plan when we set things up around the house but I guess that’s part of the fun!
