Once I was done transforming my lamp I realized it needed a funky finial to match it's new personality. I found this beautiful glass knob at Anthropologie a few weeks ago and I thought it was the perfect crowning touch.
All I had to do was remove the screw and epoxy the pieces onto the original plain finial that came with the lamp. I added a small glass bead on top where the screw head would normally be, and since it's made of glass it glows when the light is turned on.

Beautiful knob, Trixie! Great idea to use it as a finial! I'll bet it looks beautiful on the lamp.

Beautiful idea! You are a real treasure!
I loved the lamp post (Ha ha) and I love your finial. I recently ordered knobs for an old cabinet from Anthropologie and I love them. You can catch a lot of sales there online.

That is the perfect topper to your lamp. Love it!
What a great idea!! I love the color...Kathy
What a prefect idea! I'm trying this. I have so many lamps, all with ugly finials. Our Hobby Lobby sells these pretty knobs too. Usually $2.99 - $7.99. I love buying them.

Your lamp makeover is fabulous!
Every time I see all the fun knobs at Anthropologie, I want one of each to do something with.
Your idea is perfect!
