Hey hombre, hooray for ombre!
Nov 8, 2011
Julia just couldn't pass up these lamps, because they were so amazingly attractive. Oh, wait, I meant to write free. She couldn't pass up these lamps because they were free. I can totally see her point. Have you looked at the price of lamps lately? Even a squatty little table lamp from Wal-Mart is like, $35, shade not included. Buy two as big as these, and you'll hardly have enough left to pay the light bill!
She made them work together by coordinating the bases with a coat of oil-rubbed bronze spray paint. The radical ombre-effect shades, she made those herself! Stylish and thrifty! I'm impressed! Entire tutorial on her blog Chris Loves Julia.

My parents totally had 2 like the one on the right!!! There were crystals hanging from the top of the base. I love how these turned out!!
I especially love the smooth one (without the crystal). The lines are so elegant.
Love it! I'm going over to find out how she cleverly "ombreyed" those shades... I just went out today in search of some lamps for a client, and didn't find ANYTHING, despite doubling the budget halfway out of sheer desperation!!
I love it! Very classy
Gorgeous!
One of the few instances where I like ombre. So so pretty.
