Don't mistake this one for the chalk drawings! This is a genuine vintage lamp with a "pagoda" shade and a brass base. We stripped off the tattered silk, sanded the shade frame, and painted it black. We've chosen to leave it empty with an Edison bulb inside--the effect is very striking. Come for this right away if you like it, because it's a rehabbed piece and they're a bit hard to find...
Got this beautiful lamp and several organizers for $5!
Thinking about painting the wooden part, and get a new shade.

I needed some help just to get down in the floor and back up. We haven't covered that in physical therapy yet.

Artistic and ornate lamp post across a bridge, with impressive details. This was obviously built in the good old days - I can't imagine any city investing so much into a street lamp today!
Of course, as the city grew, all the electric cables and the other eye sores of modern day life appeared to clutter the scene, and also provide a contrast.

Nearly finished...I still have to attach a few more beads, but other than that I am pretty happy with it. A friend of mine has been collecting sea glass for quite a while and wanted to do something with it so she asked if I could construct a lampshade out of the seaglass and some beads. I think it is turning out pretty well.....when it's dark in the room and you turn on the lamp it casts some really neat shadows on the walls. I might just have to make another one for myself:o)
Modeled after Castiglioni's Arco lamp, this one is made out of:
- a memo clip
- melon baller
- metal frame purse handle from a crafts store

Vellum paper. Cardstock and battery tea light. Stick card stock at top and bottom of a square of paper. As tall as you want but wide enough to wrap around base of tealight.
Wrap stick and you're done!
Soo, ive been a bit cynical lately... im trying soo hard to be optimistic and not really care what others think of me.. its just soo hard when youre constantly being reminded of your flaws....
