An Auction Lamp

Several months ago, I purchased this cute little lamp at an auction.  

 001

It needed a lamp shade so I purchased a shade, trim and a tassel at JoAnn’s Fabric.  I hot glued the trim around the top and bottom  and tied the tassel around the base top.

My auction lamp is now complete just in time for Christmas.

The urns with the greens, lights and red balls are something I made last year.

Christmas is my favorite time of the year.   I’m working on my Christmas monogram wreath and mitten napkins holders.   They’re almost completed.

Have a wonderful day.
