I’m so glad I discovered your blog and website. You have terrific ideas and your taste & aesthetic are very similar to mine. Lighting is so important, and something people often overlook when decorating. I see lampshades as blank canvases ready to be transformed into something unique and stylish. Last year I encouraged my blog readers to donate their black torchiere lamps, those awful, cheapo ones that everyone seems to have, to a college student or to charity and go forth and find a vintage floor lamp to add style and function to their rooms. My next target is the ceiling fan with the big honking lights that stick out of the middle……

Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog. I didn’t mean to insinuate that you were ruining these horns. My reference to cutting them up was aimed at me. I cut up tins and make jewelry from them. I was just saying that these were too beautiful to do that to. I love what you’ve done with them. The lamps are fab and a great way to give an old object new life. Best–Christine

These made me happy on a day when all I want to do is scream seeing what the snow has left behind damage-wise in the garden. Thanks — perfect timing for a smile!
