@lucymo I saw the presentation on them and honestly, I wasn't that impressed with them...certainly not a "LOVE", which is a good thing. I have to keep reminding myself not to buy anything just because they look nice, I MUST 'LOVE' whatever it is!
I am learning to be much better at this and putting it into practice. Between just finishing another purge of even ridding our home of decor I wish I didn't buy or keep last year, it is fresh in my memory bank.
For example, one of the things I just purged was H203277...both sets of finials red and green. I didn't even use the green ones and only used the red ones once last year. What I should have done was return them after I saw them 'in person'. I regret not returning them. They were nice/ok...just no 'wow' factor and I thought the quality was lacking too.

I am guilty of 'thinking about that Cardinal lamp...the 60 days of illumination before changing the batteries is a good selling point...and I do LOVE it...still wishing it was electric...
On the fence...
I do think I will use it often for many years...Hmmmmm

Me too SL! I am contemplating that lamp to tie in with my beautiful cardinal bell. I also have the s/3 red CI cardinals from last year. There is also the cute red cardinal lantern & the s/3 matching spheres. I have got to stop taking time off during these shows...!
@BornToShop Have another piece of that yummy chocolate and pour us both a glass of wine...I'll get that Cardinal lamp

About the cardinal lamp... @Susan Louise, I thought of the cardinal and chickadee lamps on Sturbridge Yankee Workshop. Didn't you buy lamp(s) of a similar style to the one below? I was thinking that perhaps the glass effect is the same?

Handpainted Frosted Battery Operated Lamp by Valerie

Anyway, thought I'd mention them in case any cardinal or bird lovers missed out on Valerie's.

@SHOPR I was a good girl and didn't order anything from the VPH shows...not even that Cardinal lamp! I did order a similar set of 2 lamps (not in tree form like in the image you posted). They have a woodland theme that has birch trees, deer, and some birds which I love...

However, I did just place an order for the set of 2 tree lamps...and got them at a pretty good bargain. I used a coupon code SAVE035 and w/ S&H it came to under $27 for the pair!

Thanks for enabling me again SHOPR ..............

LOL @Susan Louise That is so funny! Hope you love them.

I remember (sorta) the ones you bought last year, now that you mention them.

@SHOPR I'll post a pic when I get them. I hopped on this train since they will pair so well with the VPH frosted hemlock picks in a vignette

I just went into my archives order folder and found the item # and the actual name of the pair of woodland lamps, but the image is virtually not available online...poof! I'm too lazy to go in the basement right now to take a pic of ours...LOL

It was "Winter Scene Glass Lights - #68317" from Sturbridge back at the end of October...

@Susan Louise, I just thought to use the forum's search feature since it was improved with the update. I found the thread with a picture of your lamps. It's all coming back to me now!

Thank you SHOPR for the alert on these and thank you SL for the code. I just ordered these too!

I bought a light like your 2 SL on clearance after xmas at Joanns, along with a little lamp about the size of VPH's lamps. The lamp shade has the winter scene on it. My other light like yours is not as fat, but taller. I know Kirklands last year had a light like this that was taller and skinnier and the one at Joanns was inbetween that one and yours.

I love this light and lamp. The winter scene shows up so well and it's plugin, which I love.

So thank you both so much for this info!!
