Hand Me Down Lamp


New little lamp hand me down from Mama! I have wanted this for so long... so thanks Mama for letting me bring back to the cottage! The pedestal it is sitting on is a Goodwill find.. which I love! You can take a peak through the mirror and see my rooster painted on the kitchen wall. Aren't hand me downs the best??
Hugs!

    Yes, hand me downs are the best! Especially when it's one you really wanted! He looks wonderful there and completes that nice little area.

    Your kitchen rooster is adorable too! I've noticed him often as I've hung around your roost!

    Yay for hand me downs. Things that my grandma gave me are so precious to me now. They have meaning and I remember her when I use them. Your lamp is so cute. Love the shade. Lamps make rooms so cozy. Mimi

    I'm waiting on my Mama to hand me down some favorite things. She says she's still using them and she smiles and says she'll give 'em to me one of these days! My most favorite thing I want from her is my grandmother's black wicker rocker. I have never seen one so strong and heavy and pretty. I can hardly wait to get it!
