leg lamp christmas story

leg lamp christmas story

If you are a fan of the quirky but classic holiday movie A Christmas Story then I’m sure you know all about the “A Christmas Story leg lamp.” It’s the lamp that looks like a woman’s leg wearing high heels and comes complete with a fringed shade. Of course in the movie, Ralphie’s Dad is the one who takes it out of the box and exclaims with great delight “Isn’t it beautiful?”

The leg lamp seems to be the one part of this memorable movie that people talk and laugh about for years afterward. But did you know that are several different ways that you can incorporate this one-of-a-kind piece of furniture into your own home decor? Oh yes. Here are just a few ways that you can have your very own A Christmas Story leg lamp on display this holiday season.

- Of course if you want to use the lamp in the traditional way there are several different styles and sizes to choose from. There is everything from a desk sized lamp all the way up to a full size floor model and all of them are made to look just like the lamp from the movie. You can have this iconic piece of furniture in your home all year round or save it for the holidays. Either way it is sure to be a real conversation starter!

- Another way to use this strange but adorable light fixture is to add it to your collection of bobble heads. That’s right! There are leg lamp head knockers that have a shade that wiggles just like any other. In fact, there are many A Christmas Story bobble heads available including Ralphie. You can add these fun-loving characters to your collection and display them proudly over the holidays.

- There is even a unique way to make a BIG statement about how much you love the movie and the lamp. Instead of decorating your yard this Christmas with the traditional lawn ornaments, why not add an inflatable leg lamp? Can you imagine what your neighbors and passers-by would think if they saw an inflatable woman’s leg topped with a lamp shade sitting on your front lawn? For fans of the movie, your property would be the talk of the town.

- If you need a decorating idea that is a bit more subtle but still includes this hilarious element of the movie, there are A Christmas Story Collectibles that are a little less over-the-top.

- My favorite is the Dept. 56 series of ceramic figurines that replicate the movie setting. There are houses and buildings like Ralphie’s House and Highbee’s Department Store but there are also miniature scenes like the one where Ralphie’s Dad unwraps the lamp and of course Ralphie’s brothers bunny suit. These pieces could replace a traditional Christmas village decoration for a more unique charm.

- And what would a party be without Leg Lamp party lights? No one would ever forget your Christmas party if instead of the traditional twinkling white lights, your home was lit by several mini leg lamps hanging from a light string.

So if A Christmas Story Leg Lamp is one of those items that you absolutely must have, be sure to consider all of these fun ways to incorporate it into your festive decor this holiday season.

A Christmas Story LEG LAMP question?

Hello, No! I'm looking to get a leg lamp "A Christmas Carol" for my girlfriend for his birthday! LOL! Heyyyy ... she wants! They have a lamp with a minor defect (spot of glue, fabric or cover stitching default) for $ 40.00 ... ORRRRR ... a new flag with a picture of damage for $ 70.00. Money is very tight right now and I know she will be very happy to receive one, while prices of $ 300 in stores. What should I do? Thank you in advance! Here's the link: http://www.leg-lamp.com/leglamp_com_s/1.htm

You can delete the queue and stains, but not sewing default. I would go with the 70.00 because you are still saving over 230.00 the original price. It would cost more to fix the seams of its value.
