Baby Boy’s Nursery Lamp Redo
Can I, as a blogger, do anything anymore, without making a docu-drama out of it? Without the hint of a major blog-dom project party to link posts to, do other, non-bloggers, actually DO projects without their camera? Hmmm…..
Thanks to the draw of one such a project-post blog party, called Laundry Party Pow-Wow (hosted by The Masked Mommy), I have completed the little lamp that could project for my laundry room. {See, I knew sparing this lamp from entry into 2 years worth of garage sales would pay off…I just knew it.}
So, in the spirit doing projects, with a camera ever ready at ones side….here is a look at my nursery lamp redo.
While doting on my little lamp that could, I got hooked on lamps. I have always loved the warm feeling a shaded lamp offers vs. the harshness of overhead lighting. But, I never even thought about placing a lamp in my laundry room. In fact, I may have made fun of people with lamps on top of their washer.
That was before. People change, right?
Here are some de-light-ful inspirations that will get you hooked too:
Bless Our Nest has a mud-room dryer light and more.
Shabby Nest, lets her lamp tell it’s own tale.
Need a shade tutorial? Check out this super stylish black and white lamp from Candlyn, a Design Sponge reader.
I may have become just another somebody to laugh at, with my lamp-age all a glow on the washer. But, I am hooked on lamps in the laundry room.
To see what other people are hooked on this week, check out Hooked on Houses, cause she is having a Mr.Linky Party called Hooked on Fridays.

Wow! I wouldn’t even recognize that lamp. Great job! And it looks like your laundry room is coming right along…
You’re not alone being hooked on lamps…, I make lampshades from my photographs (and lamp bases too)…, two alone in my living room.
I love how your lamp turned out–really like that yellow you used. Great job!
Shabby Nest’s laundry is so pretty. Makes me want to put some beadboard paneling in mine like that!
Thanks for joining my party today. Really enjoyed your post!
Thanks for visiting my blog!
Your lamp redo turned out great!
What a darling lamp ~ lamps for that matter!
The lamp is absolutely adorable! The yellow is very cheery, I love it!
