Tuesday Morning Greek Key Lampshade

Monday, May 30, 2011

On more than one occasion, I've shared my passion/obsession with pretty lamps. Normally when you purchase a vintage lamp, it either comes with the original tattered and fly poop stained shade or no shade at all.  This means I'm always on the prowl for lampshades and I can't wait to share the beauties I found at Tuesday Morning over the weekend.



I got a pair of these big gorgeous lampshades with brass Greek Key detailing.


If you live in Chattanooga, I left you one!

Also, I put a bid in on this pair of stools from here.


Sorry that's so blurry, I snagged the image from their website.

And tears were shed this weekend, too!



Congratulations, Alyssa.  You make me so proud!!

Kim,
Great shades! I get a lot of my lamps, well most of them from yard sales and am always looking for good shades too. Found a lovely linen one with brown trim, $5.00 and a chocolate drum shade, $8.00 at the Flea this weekend. Nothing better then cool finds for good prices! Congrats on your adorable graduate! Time flies, my youngest just finished her freshman year of collage!

I adore anything with greek key ... love the lampshade. Wish I could find somewhere near us where I could get some gorgeous x-stools. Hard to find in Australia.

Love that greek key on the lampshade. I might have to add some trim to a lamp in our bedroom that looks like that....the shade is so blah.
Congrats to the new grad!

Aw. Congratulations to your daughter. I just can't imagine what a bittersweet moment this is for your family! (My daughters are so young, it really is difficult to imagine.)

Yay for Tuesday morning, no? 'Fly poop.' Haha!
