A New Lamp

Hey Friends...Happy Wednesday!
    I found a great new lamp online at Kirklands for the skirted table in our family room. It has a great wooden base and I love the pretty burlap shade that came with it.

 I usually find a lamp that I love with a great base but don't like the shade that comes with it and wind up changing it to a different one. Not this time!
 The base has a pretty distressed finish.
Here's a close up of the burlap shade

I love a change...don't you!

    Love the new lamp. I know what you mean...it's hard to find both a base and a shade that I love. The burlap shade on yours looks great in your room.

    thats beautiful Martina. I love it.

    I just got 2 buffet lamps from Kirklands and was very happy to find they were heavy and far better quality than I expected...

    I love the shade- wow..

    Love your new lamp! I bet it looks great at night with the light filtering through the burlap!

    Yup! Love your lamp combo and DO love a change...that's why I'm in the midst of painting a 70's dark pine, drop-leaf coffee table. Next in line is the matching end table. I must check out Kirkland's!

    Your new lamp is fabulous! I am looking for a shade just like that one but now I'm thinking maybe I just need the lamp instead?!?!? LOL

    Perfect lamp for that table, Martina. I am very lamp challenged. I have a hard time knowing what will look good for a specific spot when there are so many options.

    Love that lamp! I like a rustic look like that mixed with the checked table cloth.

    I agree 100%! Even a little change makes such a difference. Love the finish as well. It looks beautiful sitting on your pretty skirted table. It's so rare that I find a lamp that I like both the base & the shade as well as the price! :)
