Hobnail LampIsn’t this cute?  We bought this a couple summers ago when visiting my mom in Fort Erie.

The most difficult task was to find a decent lamp shade with the piece that fits onto the bulb.  You can find them, but generally they are not in the greatest shape.

I bought this shade recently at a thrift shop.  It was the right shape and colour, but it was soiled.  I decided to throw it into the clothes washer on the delicate setting.  If I had a dishwasher I would definitely have used that.Hobnail Lamp (2)

In any event, the trim along the edges came out a little worn, but it cleaned right up.

I don’t know how old this lamp is and whether it fits the definition of milk glass…but I think this is cute.  I like the way it looks against the blue wall of my home office.
