I found these lamps shades at a yard sale a while back and am still debating them.

I don't even recognize myself lately, being drawn to such froufrou stuff.

But I like how the amber beads dangling from the shade match the amber glass in the lamp,

and I kind of like the variation of the shade...

the lighter part has tiny beads,

and the darker part is actually furry!  :)

I only paid $5 for them, so what's not to love?

The darkness, for one thing...

they darken the light much more than the off white linen shades we've had for years,

but they've been damaged in our multiple moves.

Lampshades are so expensive,

so I'm thinking at this point that beggars can't be choosers.

I can live with the froufrou for $5.  :)
