saturday

Fifteen years or so ago I bought a couple of lamps at a yard sale. I didn't need them at the time. They were pretty, and only five bucks for the pair. I knew I'd use them some day.
 Now I need two lamps. I've been shopping for weeks for a lamp or two that I like.  Good lamps can be expensive. I'm a tight wad.
Last week I remembered my yard sale lamps. So I got them out of the attic.
They're pretty.They have a retro 50ish-60ish look to them. But they're pretty just the same. They just need to be cleaned.   I'm happy.
Now I'm on the hunt for lamp shades.

It's always a good feeling to find out something you bought for a really good price is really needed.

I like old shit, like my old radio that still sounds good. So get artsy fartsy and make your own lamp shades.
