Isn't it lovely? Now here's the part that really makes this special. It cost only $10! I found it in an antique store sitting among other lamps with higher price tags. I thought that maybe something was wrong with it so I inspected it closely. It works perfectly. It's just the look that I wanted for the sideboard in my kitchen. I'm happy.
The bird embossed pitcher is a Home Goods purchase and the teapot is one I've had for a long time, Blue Peony by Nikko. I placed them there so that you can get an idea of the size of the lamp. Such a sweet vignette, it looks so cheery when the sun shines through the window. Speaking of sun, we're expecting warm, sunny weather for this week. The garden beckons.
This was a short post for me today, I'm in the process of making slipcovers for my wingback chairs (YIKES!)- We'll save those particulars for another post :-)

Thanks for visiting me today, I hope you have a great day. Many blessings.

The lamp is beautiful. Isn't it fun to find something that you can so enjoy? Have a wonderful Tuesday, and thanks for stopping by my post. Blessings, Gloria
Wonderful find and it looks beautiful in this vignette you've created. Wonderful tea pot, pitcher and I love the nest. Happy Tea Day!
What a find! The lamp is charming. Looks so wonderful on your table. Also love the white pitcher. I am a Home Goods addict, lol. Not much buying, lots of looking on our retirement budget, lol. I had not seen that pitcher in our stores. Blessings.
Wish I could find a lamp like this. I love this style. Happy Easter.
