lamp3
Charles, my brother, gave two lamp bases to me in 1993.
I had dressed them with off-white pleated conical lampshades that needed replacing. Yesterday I went shopping for shades. We don't have many choices locally -- KMart, Wal-Mart, Fred's. I couldn't find a thing the right size, until...
I found these drum shades at Wal-Mart. Hmmph, I said, I'll give them a try. Hold on to the receipt, and return them if necessary.
The lamps have never looked better. They'll go beside the bed.
Lyman has never cared for the bases. Even he likes them now.
Lyman's grandmother did the little duck box in a ceramics class that she took when she was about 90.
