sunday stuff


I bought this glass lamp stand ages ago from a charity shop and I finally got around to giving it a shade. Originally I wanted to find a vintage one, but couldn't find one the right size and shape, so decided to cover one I already had in Liberty print fabric, really easy to do when you use spray mount.

I'm not a mad royalist or anything, but I love this postcard of the queen, I think she looks happy with my fabric choice, what do you think?

  1. Do I recognise that fabric from a couple of posts ago? Looks pretty good with the red from the postcard.

  3. It looks great! I've been looking for a good vintage lamp stand for so long now. The ones I find always seem to sit just on the wrong side of tacky, but yours is perfect!
