Awwww, Horse Lamp!

We found this plastic horse leg at the Round Top flea market. It is from a Tack shop, but we have no idea what it must have been modeling.

We paid $10 bucks for it and we kept it the original brown, too.

This photo is Horse Lamp in the sunlight. The big hole in it must  have been where it was filled with something heavy to stablize the base, but in Tim’s very clever fashion, that’s where he inserted the switch for the lamp – and the dimmer fit perfectly.

 

Don’t ask how much we spent on the lamp shade. Let’s just say if we tried to sell the lamp for the amount we’ve invested, we’d be laughed at. Oh, and we’re not offended if you compare it to the Christmas Story lamp.
