Lighting Up White Wednesday

White Wednesday Lighting
Featuring some of my lamps...




I'm always looking for vintage white lamps...hard to find, I think!

This lamp isn't old, but it's the heaviest wood!



I change the shades around alot...

 This is the kitchen lamp...it stays on 24/7

Living Room

I have been trying so hard to get my home in order.  
Finally, today...I feel like I can show my living room with a few new items.



How fun is this rug?

Another  Craigslist find!  
It was never even used..
It's a really nice wool rug and I paid about 1/5 of the purchase price.
When I tire of it (which I'm sure I will), I should have no problem selling it....maybe even at a profit!


I've had the fabric to make the pillows for the longest time.
About 3 hours...and the pillows were done.  Why did I wait so long?










If you saw my previous post, this pic was taken before I found the leather recliner.



My favorite crow...vintage paper mache' with glass eyes.

 One of my 'strange' collections.....Pumpkin stems!


The cutest little white fan.  
Someone painted it a long time ago.
It works great!



So....that's the tour around the room.
Michael asked me the other night where we are going to put the Christmas tree?
"Rutt Ro"

It's White Wednesday again!
Linking up with Kathleen at Faded Charm for the 125th WW!
