The Ugly Lamp Contest is coming soon! Start training your eyeballs now so they will to be able to withstand the soul-crushing hideousness that is coming their way. I will have more info soon, but I am starting to accept submissions now, so send those original ugly lamp pics my way! (Betterafter(at)live.com, subject line: Ugly Lamp).
And in NON ugly lamp news, Christina at The Frugal Homemaker took this sickly set of brass lamps and healed them with a dosage of white paint.
(Truly, they weren’t that bad). I’m a fan of brass and think it can look awesome in the right room, but white will always and forever be a classic favorite!
