Happy lamps to you...

I know I say in every blog that I LOVE this or that, but seriously, this project just makes me straight up happy!!! :)  I've had this lamp literally for 10 years... I got it when Doug and I were first married from a whole in the wall junk store and I "stain glass" painted it red and recovered a shade for it... it was cute, but my style has definetly changed since then.  In fact I don't own a single piece of furniture from those days except a desk and it's been repaint (imagine that right! :).

I found a couple of old pictures with the lamp in them... the one with Luke cracks me up!  He's so his dad's child... :)

...and I have no clue how to get the pictures that I scan to be just the picture instead of all that white space.. whatever, you get the picture. Also, I'm clearly super good at using the paint program and circling things too :)

Anywho.. enough about my mad computer skills... :)  The lamp has great features, but I just never got around to being inspired about it... until the other day.  I had this divine inspiration to tear it apart and  rethink it.  I love color, but wanted something modern-y like my house and funky.. couldn't be happier.. check this out peeps!

SERIOUSLY!!  Ah-mazing!  I heart this lamp!  Does it just make you happy?!

Dear spraypaint inventor, I love you with all my heart.  Sincerely, Melody.

Remember this chair...




It went out the door at $200!  I couldn't be happier about spending $15 total for the chair and fabric.  Let me tell you, I was pretty excited about a $185 profit! :)

Ciao.
