Lamp is Up

Hi Fellow Mashers,
I just added my first lamp to my gallery. Check it out if you'd like.  It's fun to click a button and see something you made from refuse light up a dark room.
Have I finally found my calling?

Wishing you all a happy holiday season.

Re: Lamp is Up

Very nice, Elsa!  Did you make both the base and shade?  What are the little white things in the base?  Are they embedded or painted on?

I love the way the light comes through that red shade!

A nice piece of work.  Thanks for posting it.

Re: Lamp is Up

Hi Sue,

I made the base from a plastic jug and paper mache.  I used a self-adhesive clip-on shade that I ordered from www.mainelyshades.com.  I painted small white flowers with yellow centers on the lamp base. 

Thanks for the nice words.

Super lamp Elsa. Lovely vibrant colour. Very satisfying making something you can you use as well as admire.

Hi Jackie,
Glad you like the lamp.  I'm working on a few more and will put them up ASAP. 

Cheers,
