Cathy
Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to leave a comment. I appreciate it.

What you did with the teapots and coffee pots sounds adorable! Some people get so angry when others change vintage items. I get it, but what else are they good for? 🙂

Love the tea cup lamps but absolutely adore the coffee pot lamp!! Years ago I took vintage tea and coffee pots and drilled small holes randomly on the surface and then a larger hole very close to the bottom and inserted a small light (like those used in salt lamps 7 or 15 amp bulb). They made great coffee bar/ kitchen night lights.

Thanks Patricia! I want to make another one. I already have the coffee pot, just can’t seem to find the time.

Great point Adam, except I had no idea I could do that. 🙂

I have another, maybe I’ll google it before I do it.

If you are going to ruin a perfectly usable coffeemaker you could atleast make it so you can use the original connections

Oh my! perhaps it’s the one I made? Wouldn’t that be fun?

I should have initialed it or something. 🙂

I just received this exact coffee pot lamp from a friend. I was trying to see if it was meant to be a lamp but I guess someone found the same coffee pot that you have here and made it into a lamp as well! Super fun

Yay! I have this pot as a lucky find as well. I started taking mine apart this evening so I can convert it to a lamp, too. I found out that it is best to leave at least one of the pins in the plug area. If you remove both, the sleeve would come off as well. I like that part. I think it shows that it is the real thing!
