BLUE lamp hanging above one of my stain glass windows...

Now this one one of my stain glass windows..I have four in my dining room...2 large and 2 smaller ones that are all from the same church from southern Illinois...My Late FIL had these sitting in his yard buried in snow the first time I seen them..Oh girls the wood had been painted like 6 differ colors and had sat in his yard for 15 years when I found them...He got them from his old church when they were tearing it now...Oh I just loved them..and he told me "girl if you can get them home you can have them" Well that poor man didn't know what hit him !! I grab him around the neck gave him a big ole Hug and went running for the phone..with in a day I had them loaded on a moving van being shipped to California...Poor papa didn't have a chance to change his mind...
