A winning element

When I saw this board that Kathryn made awhile ago, I was immediately enthralled with the clever idea of a baseball-themed wedding. What I found most alluring was the sparkle of the perfectly polished trophies that could double most fantastically as table centerpieces.

As of late, I've come across a design element that instantly reminded me of this lovely idea. These gorgeous trophy lamps:

I immediately fell in love and hope to eventually call one my own. They are such commanding and confident pieces. Yum.

I think I'd prefer to custom-make mine ... either with one of J's old trophies or perhaps one I come across on a flea market/antiquing trip. Anyone else loving the trophy lamp trend?

  1. I absolutely adore these lamps! I'd love to see how it turns out if you make your own...the neat thing about them is I feel as though they'd look amazing in a traditional interior OR in a more modern interior- and you could always use it as your style evolves. Plus I really like the black shades on the two you've featured. Thanks for the share!

  2. Yes! Actually, I'm hoping that after the wedding I can go antiquing and find a couple vintage ones to display on my mantle. I'll use them as vases.

  3. I absolutely love this idea! I had a derby party in May and this reminds me of all the great accents we used throughout - the lamps are so fun too!
