Don't want to be too hasty.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">After I looked at the lamps a little more closely, I noticed these stickers on the sockets. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMe16ftYRvesgVWksavttPN9eRiH9AaUl35uwUvkF58dvtgW1pFfxfnueuaqe9yo-250289oJ1Ka4iO-PoM1jMFYwja2Wb_0RXMHR8BsDl4FETKE9ZN63MqvtAHPv5DTx00xrnPSLDJNC7/s1600/IMG_0627.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMe16ftYRvesgVWksavttPN9eRiH9AaUl35uwUvkF58dvtgW1pFfxfnueuaqe9yo-250289oJ1Ka4iO-PoM1jMFYwja2Wb_0RXMHR8BsDl4FETKE9ZN63MqvtAHPv5DTx00xrnPSLDJNC7/s400/IMG_0627.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;">So, who is this Paul Hanson? Good question. I had no idea so I consulted my good friend Google. I got no real description, but found several examples of Paul Hanson lamps on both <a href="http://www.1stdibs.com/furniture_search.php?i_creator=Paul+Hanson">1st Dibs</a> and <a href="http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=Paul+Hanson+lamp&_sacat=See-All-Categories">eBay</a>. Apparently, he made a lot of lamps of varying styles starting in the 1940's. Here's an example of a pair on 1st Dibs . . . </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihCNYBlyHYel7x5-pr7mh5H2lm6xFPDQZDdSnOM4CK6V6ZITWCxCIr5F0gcguHjHR1vzdJQbxkiKjhJRJOv3vfJOnH5D7zZ1zytis5y6QPQGIBIhShXebPdZ_5UXHMrZ6zs1OMlaR1EqBz/s1600/XXX_8264_1299341152_1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihCNYBlyHYel7x5-pr7mh5H2lm6xFPDQZDdSnOM4CK6V6ZITWCxCIr5F0gcguHjHR1vzdJQbxkiKjhJRJOv3vfJOnH5D7zZ1zytis5y6QPQGIBIhShXebPdZ_5UXHMrZ6zs1OMlaR1EqBz/s400/XXX_8264_1299341152_1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;">These are selling for $4,200? Hmm. Good to know.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">In other news, I found this chevron/flamestitch fabric in the form of curtains at the Habitat store (<a href="http://timmythewienerdog.blogspot.com/">Bri</a> found this last week but there were still a couple of panels left). Thought I might be able to use it somewhere in the house. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhujp_XEH6CcsnX6P2CivwSEhEl-ZCBoHmsVCbeSnMG2CXLcU4JiOkyh7cm8Ef_NGKoI5wbTBCIVU1-P8DxMNesdgtfznHp-9Hhjm1NykKi8ExC_4v9dhbTu424rDCZV681slEZx0S22NFZ/s1600/IMG_0629.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhujp_XEH6CcsnX6P2CivwSEhEl-ZCBoHmsVCbeSnMG2CXLcU4JiOkyh7cm8Ef_NGKoI5wbTBCIVU1-P8DxMNesdgtfznHp-9Hhjm1NykKi8ExC_4v9dhbTu424rDCZV681slEZx0S22NFZ/s400/IMG_0629.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;">Or maybe not. My husband hates it. A lot. I think it reminds him of his grandmother's house. He pulled his veto card. Oh well. You've got to pick your battles, I guess. Bri, if you want some more of this fabric it's yours. </div><div style="text-align: left;"> </div><div style="text-align: left;"> Today's the last full day of my son's Pre-K, so I'll be running around like a mad woman. Happy Wednesday to you.</div>
