I ordered a small chandelier off ebay to combine with a table lamp base I had laying around, so today I did it.

I took apart the chandelier and reversed all the fittings so it would sit upright on a base rather then how they typically hang from the ceiling. I bought a coupler to join the base to the chandelier, rewired it, painted it and then put a plug on the end of the cord. The end result...

Best of all, it fits the theme of the room.
