At the same estate sale where my son purchased the bookcase I wrote about 2 weeks ago, I found this lamps. They have etched glass shades, and prisms.

I bought them at a great price, and planned to resale them in one of my booths. But when I got home, I noticed a hairline crack in one of the shades! So for now, I’m enjoying them on my antique sideboard! Maybe one day I’ll run across another shade and decide to part with them, but more than likely I won’t!

 

 

Don’t know if you can tell which one it is…but it is in the first picture. I thought I had looked them over really well, so I’m wondering if the crack happened after they were packed up. Who knows? But I am going to have to be more careful!

Sometimes I buy something for my booths that I get home and decide to keep. That is what happened with these two pictures that I found recently at a ‘downsizing’ sale. There seems to be quite a few of these lately by the way!

The picture frame was banged up a little, and I need to get the right paint to fix them, but for now I touched them up with a paint pen. They are perfect for the spot right next to my china cabinet.

Recently my son found this oak bookcase for a great price at an estate sale. He wanted to put it in one of his booths to make a quick sale, but I talked him in to selling it to me! The price was right….and I didn’t have to go to the hassle of getting it here…it was already here!

The piece is oak, which many people don’t really care for anymore. But I love it- It is perfect for books, collectables, and pictures. And it is a perfect fit at for the spot at the end of the sofa!

I don’t know if you can tell from the photos-but the old glass is wavy and very pretty! And I love the way it reflects light from the room especially at night!

 

 I was in a hurry to get it filled-it needs tweaking, but for now it will do!

Thanks for stopping by…hope you will join in!
