my rooster lamp

 This morning, I cleared out the bottom right cupboard of our kitchen island.

 I helped my husband place the rugs underneath it 

so we could slide it without 

 scratching the floor.

 Enter the electrician who drilled the hole in the floor

 and lots of other dirty work in the crawl space below it 

 which I had no interest in documenting...

 I confirmed the placement of the electrical box...

 and it was installed - enabling the placement and lighting of this rooster lamp.

(My husband wrote the check for what is my belated Christmas and birthday present.)

I'm thrilled.

The lamp was painted by my grandmother years and years and years ago.

It is a treasure to me and fits right in with my "fowl" decor

in our kitchen and dining area (see previous post).
