Where to buy a lamp with a base that unscrews so it can be filled with whatever?

beach house table lamps image

zak's 5th

Years ago my parents bought end table lamps for their beach house. The bottoms unscrewed and they filled the lamp with seashells and driftwood. No one can remember where the lamps were purchased and I have looked in all the locals for some such but no luck. (Michaels, Pat Catans, Lowe's, Home Depot and discount dept. stores.) The only thing I can find are the kits that include a mason jar. Any help would be appreciated.

Answer
I just saw one yesterday at the local thrift shop. But if you don't live in the Twin Cities, you may have to order online.

to use the shells? I already have shell mirrors and shells in candles. What are some other projects I could do with them that wouled make my house look pretty and beachy?

Answer
Aside from routine mirror perimeters, you can glue shells on any shape, painted/papered backboard with a hole, and make it into a clock. If you carefully drill holes into small shells, you can sew them onto lamp shades. I have seen strands of shells used as curtains or dividers. Simple shells glued around the apron of a table would be interesting.
