Shelf Lamp

In order to maintain and post often enough, I am including the progressions of more than just jcrabbit.etsy.com. So here is a new taste. In order to finish the new dining room we had to buy a new Lamp. WE had one like this, but it broke.

When something breaks it goes into my workshop in the basement. Now when you get a tower with shelves in a workshop, it can have a way of piling with stuff... Plus is makes a great cup holder while I am working.

So Despite multiple promises to my wife that I could and would fix it, it came time to install it in the room. Needless to say the thing is still in the basement acting faithfully as a junk holder.







I came home from work ready to clean it off...and try to figure out what was wrong with it. To find a brand new one sitting in a box in the living room.

Phew... I really had no idea how to fix that other one., plus like 3 weeks ago the glass fell and shattered into a thousand pieces.









So I put the new one together and sure enough it looks great!

Here in the corner it provides the light that the chandelier cant. That chandelier by the way has also been sitting in the basement for over a year, we grabbed it at Lowes on clearance hoping that someday we would find a spot for it.


And there you have it the progression of a shelf lamp and hoe it came to be in my dining room.
