Default My find at the wool fest.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]412964[/ATTACH]
There is a place in Vermont that makes these lamps and they were at the Wool Fest in Deerfield NH yesterday, and also will be there today. I just had to buy myself this mother's day present. Now I need to find the perfect lamp shade.

I found his site on the web, if anyone is interested in old bobbins, spools etc...really cheap. I would love to go check out his store. http://www.joelsperkins.com/MERCHANT...Store_Code=JSP

I just looked up Rhinebeck fest. http://www.sheepandwool.com - I just may have to go. I bought a spinning wheel a while back, but have not used it yet. I purchased como wool, Alpaca, some other type of soft wool, angora. I figured that will be a good start. Next year I will have to learn how to knit. My husband is thrilled...another hobby...LOL...and of course that means I need more room for my stash.

Wonderfully unique lamp. What I want to see now is the rustic wood piece on the wall to the left of the lamp. Looks mighty interesting. Pictures???
