$1 Edison Style Lamp


I found this lamp at a yard sale over the weekend for $1.  It's not any name brand or anything, in fact I'm pretty sure it's from K-mart originally.  I asked the lady if it worked, she said yes, but that I would need to find a new shade for it. 


Au contraire Mademoiselle.  The shade I do not need.


I saw it without the shade as sort of an Edison style lamp.  I gave it a couple of days of probation, and in the end decided I like it.


I think it makes a nice pairing with the Edison lamp I made a few months ago.



I fully expected my husband's reaction to be, "That's weird." - an exact quote of his reaction to my suitcase table, which can be seen {here}.  But shockingly, he actually liked it!  I knew there was a reason I keep him around.

    Love your lamps ... If I can find the right bulb, I have lots of lamps/parts to work with. Great idea with the Edison lamp.
    Blessings.
