lamps for kpp's room

i've had these really cool white lamps for a while...i picked them up from a thrift store here in the city.."valley
thrift" on reading road...there are two..i paid 2.99 each..



like i said..ive had them for a while...but i want to use them in my son's room...i've already grown tired of his decor...the reason i hadn't used them until now has only been for one simple reason...NO LAMPSHADES!..(as you can see im a lamp addict! i buy the lamp THEN the shade!)...

wellll....today...i found these lamp shade at goodwill..they are originally from target..(goodwill has target items now...i guess they get all the returned..damaged..and no sale goods)...it makes me happy...but the shade is really cute with no updates..if i had a cute little babyGIRL!



and the shade WITH the lamp?! TOTALLY CUTE!.....but again..tooo cute for a 4 year old boy! 


soooooo....im thinking ill use a new ribbon..and X the bow?? or just take the ribbon out and use nothing at all.....

yeeah....x that..i dont like the nothing at all look...at all lol....so ill use the ribbon minus the cute little bow..now im off the find some ribbon (i'll probably fall asleep once its found :))...there is bound to be some around here....maybe under my pillow on my bed lol :)

oh yeah the lamps..2.99 x 2 a year or so ago = $6
the shades $6 x2 (50% off today) = $6
for the grand total of $12 for both....i cant wait to give you an update with the new ribbon.
