I didn't really know what I wanted to share today for the two things I love, so these are kind of random, but I love them nonetheless! The first thing is a super girly lampshade I got a couple years ago for the big ole price of $1. It's pale pink with velvet dot flowers and lace trim!
The second item is this ceramic plaque depicting The Last Supper. Way back down in the woods is the house where my husband's grandpa grew up, and it's since caved in, but a few years ago it was still mostly standing, and every now and then, we'd take a walk into the woods and walk through the house. Many things were too far gone to bring back home, but this was one of the things that was still in pretty decent shape, so it now resides on the mantle in my living room. I love it, and green is my favorite color!
ooh danielle i love the last supper plaque! so pretty! is it copper? i love the shade of green and i know that copper does that when it is old... regardless if it is or isn't it is still so pretty!
ReplyDeleteand the lamp shade! what a steal! i bet you could even make one similar...
i didn't know what to share today either... mine were super random too.
xo one hundred fifty million debillion
I can't believe you got that lamp shade for only $1.00! That is some super thrift buying right there, well done! =)

I love that lamp shade! I also love finding little things to love about home :)
ReplyDeleteKassi, the plaque is ceramic (I think one of Chris's great aunts may have made it) and the paint is green witha tiny bit of gold on top of that. It's pretty neat!

Gabrielle, it works out that I'm such a cheapskate because I seem to find some pretty good deals!
what a great find that lampshade was! so pretty and feminine! and what a wonderful story to go along with the pretty green last supper plaque!

ReplyDeleteCan't buy history. :-)
Madame, that plaque is actually plaster...did you ever make things like that and paint them in bible school? We should make a negative mold of something and cast plaster replicas!
