The pain seems to go away once I click the switch on and light shines against the wall.. Yes, folks it's my obsession with lamps..and many of you know it's a huge one. I'll try and keep this tour short. I'll show you just a few of them..this post !! :-) I don't want to loose my audience before it grows. lol
This darling lamp sits in the window sill and gets turned on nightly. The glow from outside is wonderful. It fits in beautifully with the rooster fetish I have. Ok.. that's for another post..lol


Again with the roosters? I know, I know.. But I just couldn't resist. This gorgeous specimen is one of a kind in my book. The base is marble and the rooster is a type of metal. The whole lamp is quite heavy. I found him at Hobby Lobby about 4 years ago. Isn't he a beauty? He has a roving fever and moves around the kitchen on a regular basis.

Okay, I get it. You're tired of the roosters that have invaded the kitchen. But again, this lamp is so unique. He has such attitude, and puts off the most wonderful glow. The picture doesn't show the incredible details on the shade. I'm not sure what stole my heart first the shade or the rooster. It just had to come home with me.. :-)

Morning Lynne...I'm a nut for lamps too...there's just something about the light & shadows on the walls I adore. Your rooster lamps are wonderful. ;-) Bo
Good Morning Lynne,
Well, we are still having problems with the cable and no phone for three days now. I hope they got the problem fixed after all these days. I find myself doing things in such a hurry when I'm on here, because the cable keeps going off. My emails are so piled up, it will take me half a day just to go thru them.
Yes, I remember this room. I told you that I hope to do black and white with the toile in the lt. green bedroom we have. I envy the rooster lamps, I would like one for my desk in the kitchen. I'll have to go back and look again.
Have a great day.

Hello Lynne, Oh my you have some beauties! The ones with the beads are really unique and gorgeous. I love lamps too!
Last week I posted TT and added little Rooster S&P Shakers I received as a gift. Not sure if you saw the photos but I know you would appreciate seeing them. Your new background is so pretty! Great choice. Hope you have a wonderful day. ~Melissa :)
Oh I love your lamps. I am a lamp collector too . My g.daughter counted them and she said I now have 24 . Oh my gosh it's a sickness LOL .
Lynne, as you know, I am a lamp lover too. One of the smartest things I did when we remodeled this house, was to put some outlets on light switches. I can walk in and turn on numerous lamps with one flip of the switch. (It also helps when I'm going to bed and have to turn them off.) All of your lamps are so pretty, and I love all of the roosters too. I also love this Christmas look for your blog. laurie
Well lady you convinced me many moons ago. You definitely made the right selection to finish off this gorgeous room. I still love the tea service displayed on your bed-tray. In fact, I can't find anything in the room I don't love.
The rooster lamps are eye catching as well, but there is just something magical about this room. Glad to see the chocolates are not there to tempt Miss Scooter.
Roosters and toile? How can you go wrong! hehe! I remember that toile bedroom on rms. Love it!
Gm Lynne, first I must mention I found it!Now, is it possible to order?Now for the Lamp Obsession. I have the same disorder. It is a family and friends joke about I never met a lamp I did'nt like. If I go to Homegoods my sweet hubby always say, "no more Lamps",One night he counted 9 lamps he had to turn off before he could go to bed. I always use low wattage or refrigerator bulbs because I love that candle glow look. Oh my , I think my palms are starting to sweat. Haha! Have a wonderful day, and I am coveting the transferware platter. Hugs Kathysue
Well, someone else has this 'habit' too! Maybe we could form some type of club, or support group! I have lamps everywhere! (closets, basement, under the stairs just waiting for that perfect spot). Actually I think you may have me beat. You got it bad girl. They are lovely though. ~Cindy~
Hi Lynne,
You have such a good "eye" for perfect lamps! Your trash to treasure lamp is awesome! I'm not a rooster person, but between you & Rose, I'm looking at roosters now....
I bought a pair of lamps at Home Goods for the guest bedroom this week. I'll do a post whenever we pick up the rest of the bedroom furniture I'm moving from Mom's house.
Miss Scooter has that same beggy look on her little face that Murphy has about a million times a day. I love those babies! :0}

*Hand raised in the air* I too am a lamp-o-holic.....And if it has hanging crystals? And any kind of french flavor? Well I MUST have it!! I can't help myself...And I don't want to! I love lamps so much I have placed them in areas with no hope of their ever being plugged in...I don't care, I just LOVE them sooo much!! My DH would say I really DO need a 12 step program!....And not just for lamps either....there's chairs...chandeliers....spelter figures....art nouveau boxes...Well you get the picture. But Lynne, one lamp I don't have is a rooster. How is that possible? It's a lamp and french.....I must address this problem immediately!!*winks* And I love all of yours! And you wouldn't mind sparing just one, would ya? Vanna
Hi sweet Lynne! Oh, how I loved the tour and was disappointed when I saw that's all there was for now!! I love those rooster lamps!! Little ones, big one, froo froo ones - just all of them.
I wanna see more!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia :)
Oh Lynne! you have Gorgeous lamps! And I too was coveting that crystal oozing one in the Jcp catalog!! And those lamps that got dropped..!? Beautiful!! And who could resist rooster lamps?! Not me!:) I love going to Homegoods and perusing the lamp section. Fully knowing that I have no place for another beauty but I still torture myself nonetheless! I was reading your profile and you ARE a busy girl! I hope you found time to read your decorating magazines and enjoy that cup of coffee. That's my most favorite thing to do. I even found a little stool to pull up along side the couch so while I am lounging, perusing the mags - I don't have to reach too far for my cup! You and I need to read those books together and then do some lamp shopping! :) Thanks for sharing and I DO WANT to see MORE! Take care. ~ Laurie
Girl you are not by yourself with this 'sickness'! lol I love lamps...I touch them and drool over them in stores...I have some in the shed even...those rooster lamps are gorgeous! I had rather use lamps than over head lights anyday!
You are so funny with your lamps, Lynne and I think I am catching your disease. LOL. I wanted to tell you that I put my snowman sleeve out and it is so pretty. I am not quite ready to finish X'mas decorating yet but I took out my fall decor from the dining room and replaced my pr. of candelabra to look Christmassy. It's a start. I had to have a reason to take the snowman lamp out....LOL. I love all your lamps but you did not show my favorite, the bunny lamp!...Christine
I am addicted to lamps too! and chairs! I LOVE chairs!!! Why do we get addicted to these things? better than drink or drugs I suppose.
Enjoyed the tour of lamps. I'm sure you have more lovelies you haven't shared with us. Bring them on!! Hope you enjoyed your day off - you must work very hard. Sally
Not sure if my first comment went through - but thanks for your comment on my blog!!! love your rooster lamps - very very cute!!
Lynne, I didn't know you started a blog. It's great to see you here. I have always loved your home & lamps. And yes, I love roosters.
Hugs, Terrie
