a glam lamp for alice

One of the items I salvaged from the fire was this glass lamp base.  The glass was severely charred and actually used to have a red coating on the inside and all the electrics were burned to a crisp.  A long soak in a diluted mix of paint thinner removed the red interior, I painted the rod a turquoise colour, new wiring and  a two-tone purple lamp shade I found in the AS IS section of IKEA for $2 and Alice has a new glam lamp for the nursery.  There are still quite a few imperfections with the glass, but that's what makes it so charming.  Now Alice has something with a bit of history.
