What do you think about these lamps for my foyer
Comments (31)Well, there ya go! Get what makes you smile, and if it reminds you of your dear grandma's house, then you'll smile in your heart whenever you see it. I know a lot of people talk about focal points and competing, but I like pretty wherever I look. If you like Victorian decor, here's a link for more breathtaking lampshades, just for fun. I like the look of two tall candlestick lamps on a table. Asymmetry is more modern; Victorian decor used a lot of symmetry. But there are no hard and fast rules. Thanks for letting me know you are enjoying the Gallery! I get a lot of my questions answered by looking in those threads... questions like how to decorate a table, for instance. And you're very gracious and very welcome. I don't generally think of myself as one of the best helpers here by any means, so it's nice to know I actually did help. Here is a link that might be useful: More Victorian lampshades...See MoreLamp Post - I'm about to give up looking
Comments (8)Hi Squirrelheaven. Did you see what I've done so far to my house? I didn't put shutters on the bay, I painted the door a deeper red and painted the front shutters black and replaced the white light fixtures to black. I was a ittle nervous but thought I could always change if I didn't like it but I'm happy with the small changes. I'm not sure about window boxes right now but maybe later. I'd definitely have to trim the hedges if I did but it was a great idea. I may just print out that picture of the lamp post and take it to a carpenter and see how much they might charge. I got to looking and it cost extra for light fixture and then you have to pay for the plaque and then for someone to install it all and it could end up costing close to $1,000. lol Thanks for the idea. Here's my house as it is now:...See MoreWhat do you think about this lamp?
Comments (23)Thanks again everyone. I know I am going overboard thinking about this lamp but I like researching things. I will remain puzzled as this is a really nice store, everything else is pristine, I really don’t think they are trying to pull anything off or sell something damaged. The lines are parallel, all around. Cawaps - what style would you call this? That’s what aim trying to find out. Ingrid, I’m glad you saw this although I know it’s nothing like your antique bowls. The man at the store seemed unsure about this vase himself. The glaze to me seemed very heavy, not “fine”. Something is just very different about it. Just for fun, the man at the shop showed me some 1860s rose medallion as well as some from a century later. Very interesting! Rose medallion is probably for amateurs but it’s the one thing I can recognize and admire....See MoreSearching for sentimental favorite MCM lamp...
Comments (6)There are several on etsy.com. I like this one because of the great condition and the added chalk-ware. $33.00. a buy! https://www.etsy.com/listing/619076194/mid-century-modern-chalkware-electric?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=mid+century+mosaic+table+lamp&ref=sr_gallery-1-1&organic_search_click=1&frs=1...See Moreredbazel
