Affordable Floor Lamps

Why are attractive and affordable floor lamps so hard to find?  I have been searching for a floor lamp for our family room FOREVER.  Granted, I haven't really made it a priority, but I am never impressed with what I find and then when I find something I like, I can't afford it.  Well, I finally spent a good hour just searching for floor lamps and I surprised myself.  I found some good options:

First, let's pretend money isn't an option.  If that were the case, I would be all over this beauty:


But, we just came back from vacation and it's back to reality.  Of course, with affordable options there is always a little elbow grease involved.  So here is this close option from CSN for $74.  I would get a can of Rustoleum's Metallic spray paint in brass to paint it and would replace it with a drum shade.

I like this option below, also from CSN, for about $88.  I like how it already has a drum shade and the height is 60".

I really like the minamalist look of this next lamp.  Straight and simple lines for $134 and the height is 62"!

Lastly, I like this lamp by Robert Abbey, it's the most expensive of the bunch, but the brand name is good and the height is substantial at 64".  It runs $266.


So, now I just have to bite the bullet and choose one.  Any favorites?  I hope you all have a wonderful Easter weekend!  I plan on getting some home projects done (weather permitting)!!!
