From yesterday afternoon:
I just really like that picture. For starters - it's sunny outside! And I like the repetition of the arches in the shadows.And a few pictures of things rescued from thrift stores in the past few days:
I picked up four sets of this cup and saucer. $1 a set. I really like white glass for some reason so I was really excited for these. No chips and the gold is in great condition.
A hurricane style lamp. I didn't know if it worked when I bought it (for $2) but when I got it home and tried it out it worked just fine. It was dusty and needed a little elbow grease to get it spiffy but it's in good shape. Now I just need to find a glass that fits it up top. Also, am I calling it the right name? Hurricane lamp?The sleep took a turn for the worse last night. I needed to study for a Bible knowledge I need to pass by Friday. Instead I procrastinated by taking pictures of my favorite bits of thrifted fabric. Granted, I was trying to get to the bottom of my tub o' fabric for some quilt blocks that I'm mailing off to someone so I had an excuse. Ah well, today is another (sunshiney!) day.

Great picture of the arches! I like your cups and saucers, too. It shouldn't be too hard to find a chimney for your lamp. Look in the lighting department of some big box store.
I'll check Target... But I'm doubtful. They barely had lamp harps, only one size. (and I'd like to get a white hobnail one if I can and I don't think they'd have such a thing there for sure).
Cup and saucers so cute!
