I LOVE LAMP - freebie!

Hey hey!

The time has come for me to say goodbye to one of my favourite props, a standing vintage lamp. It's large and I don't know what to do with it.. I have a friend in Stafford who is collecting quirky bits to upcycle for her new place but I just can't get it to her as I don't drive and er, it's a bit big for the train! 

My house is undergoing major renovations at the end of this month and if I can't find a new home for it, it will have to go into a skip, which I'd be super sad about because I HATE throwing perfectly good props away.

I say prop because it's not perfect - the light has a working bulb, and is safe - but a couple of the tassels round the lampshade are less than perfect and it could do with the lampshade being covered (because I also used it outdoors in the summer and it got a bit.. well, worn) - something I was planning on doing, but didn't get round to! 

So basically, needs love & a new home. I can't transport it anywhere, but if you want it and can pick it up from my place in Angmering, West Sussex (UK) any time between now and March 26th, it's yours! Just ping me a message.

I picked this up free from a lady clearing out her house a couple of years ago - she was so lovely and she loved that I used it to design photographic sets. She'd love to know it's being re-used again..

Here are some self-portraits featuring the lamp.. (you can even strap a flash inside for a stronger light) and then some test shots but which show the whole thing..

Thanks,
C x

Thanks Holly, such a shame as I know you'd make good use of it!

Whoops posted in the wrong group.. I didn't know if that for sale group was only for paid goods or freebies too, ahhh.. :)

Even without the lampshade on though, it's still pretty much the same height..

With nobody in the passenger seat, you would be able to fit it in, surely

I haven't got a car.. but yes, I guess depending on the car someone has coming to pick it up, it could work.. I just need it gone without too much hassle.. I know that sounds harsh, but I have so much going on and have to clear an entire house as the biggest hoarder in the world - LOL my problem, I know :)

Hello!

I still have this tall vintage lamp with large tassled lampshade - anyone want to come pick it up from Angmering-On-Sea, West Sussex?

It's a freebie, a cool upcycle project (only cosmetically - it works fine!) and will have be thrown out on Sunday.

Seriously, I would love to have your lamp! Sadly, AngryMinge is just too far to travel :-( 

Unless, of course, you can deliver it - you'll go to heaven if you do!!

I am soooo sorry, B, I am up to my eyeballs shooting every day, clearing the last bits from my house, getting ready for renovating & running around like an absolute eejit.. (1/2hr break now between remote shoots today)

I absolutely would if I could, I'd love to gift it to you if I had more time to sort a courier. I'm really sorry :(
