Lamp Serendipity

 

IMG_3479

I’ve had this pair of Eiffel tower lamp bases for awhile now. I snagged them at a local antique shop for a “song”.  I’m not sure of their age, the patina is nice, and I guess they could be vintage.  Anyway, I knew I would eventually find the right shades for them. It’s hard to pass up a cool Frenchy thing.

A few weeks ago, I found a pair of mismatched modern  lamp bases with these great matching French-inspired shades on sale at TJ Maxx for $14 each. I knew exactly where I was going to use them.

A match made in heaven! Serendipity don’t you think?
