When I first saw these I thought 'bamboo'; how cool! I was surprised when it said it was made of recycled cardboard. I love the shapes. Very earthy and welcoming.

We are in the long process of remodeling our kitchen on our own on a very limited budget. Which means a lot of what we are doing is coming from reclaimed material. Like a patchwork tile floor, metal roofing along an old plaster wall, and actual rocks from a river near by for tile backsplash. We are trying to do this as cheap as we can. Long story short, these lamps would fit in nicely along our bar that is going where we just tore the wall out.

Thanks for all of the inspiration!
