While shopping in the mid-90's, I ran across this adorable lamp in a home decor store. The writer in me couldn't resist bringing it home.
I love the story it tells with its intricate details.
The lampshade has a story of its own.
Everything about this little lamp makes me smile, but especially the typewriter. I can be predictable like that.

Sweet nostalgia! I wonder if its craftsman didn't delight in having created this?

ReplyDeleteThat is the cutest lamp I have ever seen. I don't blame you for picking it up, I sure would have too.
ReplyDeleteI just love this lamp, Dayle! How perfect for you! It has so much personality - love the fan and the phone and the drawer overflowing with papers.

How CUTE!!! Love it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful find. I love it and I'll try not to covet it : )
ReplyDeleteJust too cool. I like interesting, unique things in our homes like this. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI would have wanted to snatch that up too. I guess it's the "wannabe" writer in me!
ReplyDeleteMy mom still has her typewriter that looks like that one on the lamp. I have wanted to drag it out of her attic, but I can't figure out where to put it if I get her to let me plunder.
What an absolutely fabulous lamp! I can just see a guy hunched over and typing away -- a guy with his sleeves rolled up and a card in his hat that says "Press."
ReplyDeleteSuch a great find and how perfect for "the author's" table.
ReplyDeleteBy the way - the mid-90's seems like just yesterday.
OK, that is seriously THE cutest lamp I have ever seen! I would've snatched it up immediately, too!
ReplyDeleteI am having some serious envy over this lamp. Love it!
