This lamp was broken so I took it for $5 from a local thrift shop called The Share House. I picked up a $10 lamp shade and a rewire kit for $10 from Lowes.
It took a just a few minutes to spray paint and then rewire it.
For $25 I now have a solid lamp and it is similar to my other 2 lamps (also resale shop lamps that were brass) that I want to put on the cabinet that's yet to be built by the front door.
These other 2 lamps I bought from Habitat For Humanity ReStore in the spring 2011. They were a total of $15 including the spray paint!
Here's the new lamp & the old lamps.... I think they look good together!
