Listed District’s Phenomenal Finds Vol. 5 – Lights

Ellen Richardson, a graphic designer and Pleasant Plains resident, recently took her Craigslist hunting skills to the next level with the launch of her blog, Listed District. Listed District offers daily DC Craigslist findings of everything from Mid-Century and Industrial furniture, to bikes and the utterly strange.  Every week Ellen is going to share a roundup of some Phenomenal Finds with PoPville.

When you really put some thought into your lighting, it shows—it’s the last layer of decorating that makes all the difference.”Why, why are you so wise, Apartment Therapy?! Teach me your ways! Lamps are some of the most popular posts over at Listed District, so today’s
