I always buy a cheap Christmas tree in December so we can make baskets, sways and wreaths for gifts. After all of the limbs are cut off I bury the base in the ground where I plan on growing a vining plant. Wont help this year but its an idea. Also check your shed or garage. I have used pvc pieces, scrap wood. anything I can find and bury them and wrap cheap twine around them. My sons art easel is gonna become a trells if he doesnt use it soon. :) See if anyone is getting rid of old wooden ladders. I just got one off of freecycle for my cukes. Carey

Here's a similar, very inexpensive ($115) option from Noir. I know I've seen another one that's similar and I thought it was from West Elm but I'm not finding it now. Here is a link that might be useful: Noir Belia pendant

I searched “mid-century commode” and found many examples. The one you picture looks almost homemade or repurposed and the color looks like an unprofessional refinish. You could easily mimic it if you know a finish carpenter.

Would greatly appreciate any help!
