The story of how I grew up and figured out my life. Hopefully.

Thanks be to Goodwill

Goodwills in Oregon are amazing. Well at least the ones I've been to. We picked these babies up last weekend.
Fab mirror for $20

Lamp I am in love with - $6
It's a nice mirror, but it needed something more. Something....yellow.
Add in a cheap shelf from Home Depot painted a glossy gray

Meeko helped.

Put it all together and what have ya got?
I love it. I really just want to stare at it all day.

Back to the lamp. Billy found this link on making a lampshade out of paper. I had actually just been to JoAnns and bought a poster board, a metal 8" ring, and some some wire. Billy folded the poster, we hot glued the ring inside the top and wired around the ring to it would hang on the lamp.

It's perfect!
