I'm not sure if they usually sell just shades, or if the shop where I bought them just took them off a pair of lamps. Can't hurt to investigate!<br /><br />Speaking of shades in general for those who asked, these are the nicest I own. The rest have come from Target or garage sales. Though I do keep an eye on the sale shelf of a local lamp repair/shade shop.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746777760318892646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-210818371540491059.post-11085842091066847672010-10-01T13:05:29.795-05:002010-10-01T13:05:29.795-05:00So, I'm thinking the 22 I have in our 2300 sq ...So, I'm thinking the 22 I have in our 2300 sq ft home is probably a little too much, huh?!

I'm thinking of running a cord under the rug, but I fear that it will be too noticeable. :-( So sad, because I so agree with you.

I like them, too, but I just can't commit.<br /><br />I have to say, I was expecting more people to scold me for my lack of lamps in the comments, but I was also surprised that many people are also intimidated by lamps like me.<br /><br />I'm hanging my head in shame. How could I have gone so long without more lamps? I'll be keeping my eyes open for more lamps to add to my collection, now. (I think I can safely call it a collection since I have more than 2 total lamps.)Kim @ NewlyWoodwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14306871325108889905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-210818371540491059.post-52006159092872550672010-09-29T16:56:49.740-05:002010-09-29T16:56:49.740-05:00Your lamps are gorgeous!

I have only 4 lamps in use right now, but I have 2 in a closet (found at a garage sale for $7 for both!) that just need a coat of spray paint and shades, and a shade that I picked out for the nursery will also be adorning a nice lamp within a month. ;0) Gotta love lamps...I'm a huge fan, even if I don't have a ton.<br /><br />How are you feeling these days!? How many weeks are you? I'm 33 1/2 weeks, so nesting is in full swing.
