Good for Color: Urban Outfitters

101207urban1.jpgThe stuff at Urban Outfitters certainly isn't top notch quality or "classic" in style. But for a punch of color, you can never go wrong in the UO home decor department.

We found a few fun items online to brighten your mood and your space. Anyone own any of these? Love them? Hate them? Holding up okay?

Left, neon cuckoo clock for $10.

Below:
Caged Blown Glass Lantern, $68
Green Spindle Lamp Base, $36
Lulu Pink Poppy chair, $380
Anodized Tumblers, 4 for $15

i have the spindle lamp in red. it's certainly not high quality, but it works and looks just fine...not ever in the market to dish out the dough for the real deal Jonathan Adler.

I have the spindle lamp in red also. The base is fine. I really like it. The separately purchased shade is not a perfect fit. That's always been the case with my UO lamp and base combos.

We use the anodized tumblers in green and silver to hold flatware and cooking implements, since our kitchen is blessed with only a single small drawer.

They're fine, and a quick run to the UO in Tempe was a lot more efficient than haunting thrift stores for vintage tumblers in the right colors.

I mostly shop at UO for the fun cute home items, I've only bought one item of clothing form there.

I bought two lamps at UO a few months ago and have not been able to find a lamp shade that actually fits onto the base properly. The shades sold by UO are of really poor quality. Poor enough for me to store the lamps in a closet until I can find an alternative shade.
