The "BOOK" Lamp

I have been using modge podge since I was young.  We came up with this idea as we saw so many people use it  in such creative ways to transform simple things for the home.  The pages used were actually from an old dictionary I carried around in high school.  The cover was long gone and the pages well aged (no I'm not going to admit how old I am).
The Lamp Measures 21.5" tall.  The barrel lamp shade is done all in black.



We are asking: $20

Scroll down to see the small desk and dresser we have offered.
We can only deal in the Phoenix area.  We are located in the East Valley.  Cash only.

The Desk is ready!

When I found this desk, I just loved how small and compact it was.  It was not assembled, but I could see it's possibilities.  After sanding, painting, finishing and putting it together, I learned that I am not a good judge at height.  This desk is shorter than I thought but would be great in a child's room.  It has a small drawer on top for supplies with two cubbies on each side and a pencil holder across the front.  Another drawer is located under the writing surface and is quite deep.  We added a fun decorative liner to both drawers. Come take a look.  We hope you like it.
Asking:    $50.00
Measurements are:
30" to top; 26.5" to writing surface
28.5" wide
21" deep
We are offering these projects to help my daughter finance her semester abroad this fall.  We appreciate your support and will try our best to give you a good value for your money.  Please contact us at: hz1755@ymail.com for more information or any questions.

Coming Soon!

First, Thank you so much to everyone that has come to check out our blog.  This is so much fun.  We know we won't be a big blog, because that is not our goal, but we are enjoying learning about the process.  We will be keeping it simple here, but hope you still enjoy keep up with what we are doing.

Our next project is almost ready.  We are working on a small desk.  We have done several desks in the past but this one is small and just right to fit in that empty space you have.  It has two drawers that are lined with the cutest paper and new pulls.  We found some old boy scout badges tucked away in it as we were cleaning it out.  we know the desk had been in storage for over 10 years.  Sometimes it's fun to know a little back ground of a piece.  We hope to have it posted by Monday. 

Also we have a unique lamp coming up too. If you like the old "book" look you may just love this.  We will have the lamp posted by Monday also.

Let us know what you think.  We invite you to comment and ask questions.  Have a great weekend.
