Bianca, I've been where you are. It's hard when your beloved isn't interested in your hobbies. I say appease him, but comment on your current lamps whenever they are flowing. Maybe he'll come around, maybe not, but you may get him a bit more appreciative of the beauty. I wouldn't suggest trying to "hide" new ones, you'll only stoke his fire. Good luck, hon.
