Medina Originals
When I was growing up we had a pole lamp in the living room. It had three curved, brass arms topped with white hobnail milk-glass shades. One year Mom bought three decorative elves, and she always sat them in the crook of the arms on the lamp. Styles came and went, but every Christmas the elves were there.
This design is dedicated to the memory of my mom. Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone!
