Vintage Primrose Lamp

I love it when people move and put things they no longer want on the curb for the trash man. Last summer I found this lamp in a box at the end of a neighbor’s driveway and immediately liked its botanical theme. It didn’t have a shade or any parts but I knew it would be an easy fix.
A year later, I finally found a shade at Walmart and a lamp kit at Lowe’s. While I was off playing tennis, handy Mr. SP put the lamp together for me. (Yes, I know I am lucky.)
I’ve seen similar shaped lamps but never one with a Primrose theme.
The table is one that my husband and I copied from Plow and Hearth. It wasn't an easy project, but it was fun to do. The chevron shelves will be great for book and magazine storage. I added a gold stripe around the top of the table to add interest.
Enjoyed the project?
