Lamps

I'm still on the hunt for the right lamps to light up the room - in addition to the chandelier. While we were hanging the chandelier yesterday I remembered that I had bought this 70's style vintage candelabra lamp at an estate sale a couple years ago for $7 -- I hadn't seen it around for almost that long so I was afraid I had trashed it. I climbed up in the attic (while Eric was gone) and there she was -- all nasty and bronze - with the most awful looking shade (that got trashed). Eric picked up some antique white paint and I went at it this morning - four coats later I think we have a winner. Now all I have to do is find the perfect shade and get Mary to make me another cute cord cover ;)!
