When the bases to all my end tables were stolen during my last move, I was left with just 3 pieces of glass and quite dismayed... then, I had this creative idea... The base is made from stacked old encyclopedias and the top is a 20"dia. piece of glass.
Encyclopedias can be found at a used book store, the free section of Craigslist, or in my case donated from a friend... Try Pier One for the glass. If you go to a glass shop, you're sure to overpay. The lamp pictured is from Anthropologie.
