Love: Menlo Lamp

I love Anthropologie just as much as the next girl. I especially love Anthro sales -- because while I appreciate Anthro's well-edited selection of goods, occasionally I feel like its merchandise can be a little, well, overpriced. Exhibit A: The Menlo Lamp.


I love everything about this little lamp. It is beautiful in its simplicity. I want one. But I'm not spending $148 (really?) for one. So I've decided that I'm going to DIY myself a little Menlo lamp instead.

I'm not sure how I'm going to do this, but I know it can be done. Apparently, there are tons of websites that sell lamp-making supplies. I'm intrigued. And hopelessly committed to making my own Menlo lamp. Stay tuned.
