I really need to remember to take "Before" pictures...

...I'll work on that.

In the meantime, feast your eyes on my new Funky, Vintage lamp!




    Antique lamp, minus shade and on-off switch: 2.00

    Stained no-longer-white lampshade: .25

    Ugly tropical print capri pants: .50

    The joy I had "ricrei-ing" it for use in my kitchen: PRICELESS!

Now, I'm not sure I like the shape and length of this shade for this base...I'm thinking a conical shade with a more '40's, "I Love Lucy" vintage fabric will be better. Or, maybe an upturned antique colander? (What? It's in the kitchen!)

We'll live with it a while and see. ;)
