You can find previous Frivolous Fridays here.
I haven't done a Frivolous Friday in awhile, so I figured I'd do a double post today.
This week, I'm lusting after this light from Rejuvenation.
All of the light fixtures sold at Rejuvenation are customizable, and to have this looking the way I'd like for our bathroom (click the picture to see), it comes in at $285 before shipping and taxes. Ouch.
We're settling for something from the Big Orange Box, which is about a fifth of the price. But if money was unlimited (or at least flowed a little more freely), I'd be all over this one.
Have a great weekend, everyone!
If you're really into DIY, and really want something nearly identical, I'm sure you can swing it with parts from an old pivoting table lamp, and a few lighting parts (such as the canopy/base, socket and shade holder). The only issue would be that you'd end up with it in regular brass unless you'd pay to get the parts plated. But it would likely cost you far less (under 100$?)
ReplyDeleteI was actually thinking of how I could DIY this on my way home from work today. I wonder if Rustoleum's oil rubbed bronze would hold up well in a bathroom? Although I'd have to be careful not to gunk up any pivoting points.
ReplyDeleteHi Ashley,
ReplyDeleteVery nice light, but ugly price tag, I agree. I don't think I could take on that DIY project, good luck.

If I do try it, it won't be for awhile! We've already picked a light for the bathroom, and it's amazing that we both like it...happens very rarely around here!
