ita beat me to it. The picture I have is a little bit closer.
Jackalope is a store filled to brim with randomness (animal shaped stools with heads and tails and made out of leather, anyone?) in North Hollywood, Bernalillo, Parker, CO and Santa Fe.
Come on out, River. The nice man wants to kidnap you.

Also, I wish that mine were wired for electricity. I wonder if I could use the other fixtures to make it work?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I like the candleness of mine (the flickering is gorgeous), but it is a bitch to light. I searched for star lamps on eBay and they all seem wired.
I'm sure you and lori could whip something up.
Well, today has been most of a waste of the day. The painkiller induced haze has faded just in time for bedtime.

the problem seems to be finding a fixture the right size. It's a small space in there and the whole that leads out, also small.
I don't know if it's worth the fuss finding a fixture, but singeing fingers on lighting the candles is also not much fun.
I'm going to finish making my lunch for tomorrow then go to sleep.

Those links make me want this lampshade. (I already have one, mind you, and it plus the deco elephant lamp cost me a whopping $2.50 at a college-equiv of a yard sale, but damn it, I want MORE of them.)
Someone needs to make repros of them so I can cheerfully scatter them about the house.

That's cool! I love the colors.

I bought mine because I felt sorry for it--it needed re-wiring, and was perhaps the most exceptionally tacky thing I'd ever seen (there's a lot more green in my shade, so it looks like an exploded rainbow). However, once I got it working, I was madly in love. It gives the best sort of warm glow as a bedside light. And the softened star shape is just gorgeous. It really is the best light ever.
I was more than a little shocked when, in attempting to find a mate for it, I saw the prices for *just* a mate for the shade on eBay. Someday, however, my elephant will have a happy herd.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
ND, it is obvious you need to come out here and design the lighting for my condo.
You want a sound guy to design your lighting? sigh
I just saw an ad for Point Pleasant saying "from the producer of Buffy the Vampire Slayer." They didn't bother to specify Marti.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I grew up with lighted "Moravian stars," especially at Christmas, since the Salem half of Winston-Salem was founded by Moravians. They were traditionally made of parchment paper and to be hung only under a porch roof, or indoors. They're still made of paper, but also of white opaque plastic now, so they can be used year after year outdoors. Folding one of the paper ones, even with instructions, pre-cut sections and tabs and slots, is a challenge.
Some people like them so much they never take them down, but at Christmas the stars hang over half the front doors in town. The local medical school complex has a lit 12-foot star on its roof every year.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Also, Cass would like to know: Does it vibrate?Nah, I got the vibrating things worked out... It's the new and exciting candle things...
Okay, like thisNEED!
Hi, my name is Cass and I really like candles.
As a lighting thing.
Nope, no way I can make this not porn...
I really like the star though.
