Fantastic Find: Vintage Striped Lamp

One of my past-times: thrift shopping!  I found a really chic, vintage lamp at a local thrift store yesterday.  It's a teardrop shaped base with black and gold horizontal stripes.  Best part was that it only cost 6 BUCKS!  Unfortunately, I didn't buy the lamp then, but hopefully it is still there when I go back this weekend.  I have been thinking about it non-stop! Thrift stores are a great way to save TONS of money, and relieve a little stress!  DIY projects and re-purposing are also the best way to create unique pieces for your space and add your own style.

The lamp is very similar to the fabulous designs of Emilia Ceramics, but imagine gold instead of white stripes:



I would love to see that black and gold lamp in a space decorated similarly to the one below.  The lamp maintains the horizontal striped theme, but the gold will pick up on the accents in the room adding a seemingly glamorous feel.

Happy Thrifting!

P.S. Let me know what you find!
