| Meet our newest atomic lamp. |
Due to scheduled family obligations on Sunday, Braxton and I had to make the most of our limited thrifting opportunities on Saturday. We went to our fave consignment shop, the one that is closest to a
sure thing. As we were browsing through the usual grandmotherly antiques looking for that mid century needle in a hay stack, I took a quick peek into the back room, the one for employees only beyond this point. There on a table in the center of the room, covered in 60 years worth of dust, was the most fantastic atomic lamp.
It was a reasonable price, although the shade was not in perfect shape, so we brought it home. No regrets here!
 |
| This is an atomic lamp we purchased a few weeks ago. Yes, they do have the exact same shade. Because we decided to place the newer (to us) lamp in a more prominent place, we switched the shades and positioned the most faded side toward the wall. Win win. |

 |
| This orange lovely sits on the desk in our living room in front of the window. |
 |
| The sunshine through the glass makes a gorgeous orange swirl. |
 |
| Now, THIS orange lovely will sit on our coffee table. It's shiny, glass, and orange. I'm so in love! |
 |
| Doesn't everything look better in the sun shine? |
I hope everyone had a
beautiful weekend.
