This is not the best ever, but I love it. I found a lamp at my fave thrift store about two months ago. It is made of cast iron I think. Very heavy. Its covered with pretty bamboo leaves. I wanted a bamboo shade but couldn't find one that didn't cost a ton of money. . I did find a used little wicker basket that I painted. I took an old cruddy little lampshade and tore it apart and saved the rings for later use. I had to retro fit the parts to fit a smaller shade but it was super easy. The total cost for the lamp and basket was about 3 dollars.
