~ Glimpses ~







Before I head out today I thought I would post a picture of the beautiful lamp (yes another lamp) that my lovely daughter bought me for Christmas. It seems that these figural metal lamps are getting harder to find and more expensive. I love the chippy paint! It is huge and heavy. Now I need to find just the right place to put it.....

    Oh mylanta...they are gorgeous. I have their third sister at Winnie & Tulula's. She's a lamp attached to a marble topped table. You are so right...they are becoming scare as hen's teeth. I swear they could be triplets! I love their tummies!

    I love lamps too. If I find a unique one at a market I buy it and then go home and ask myself how many lamps can I really use:) But that doesn't stop me. Yours is fabulous! I would have bought it too:)
