As I mentioned before, I've collected a lot of driftwood. Some pieces speak more to me than others - especially, this one
I sanded it till it was as smooth as a babies bottom....love, love, love it! But what to do with it?
Cruising pinterest I found some table lamps made of driftwood and it hit me - that's what I could do with it! So I went out to Target and bought this:
and this:
My original plan was to take the lamp base apart and slide it into the wood (it is hallow). But Roger and I tried and tried but we just couldn't take it apart. I then tried pulling it apart a bit and was able to slip it over the base and TA-DA! We now have a nice "designer" lamp! (do I have to sign it?...lol)
Looking for my next project!
Aloha a Hui Hou!
What a great idea! You go girl!!!!
ReplyDeleteoh & yes, the lantern was already that colour (it is exactly like the ones Ikea sells!) and the door for the panel has a knob on it but it also can be opened by holding the top edge...
ReplyDeleteHave a great one!
Thanks Anne! I can't help but sit back and say "I love my lamp!" lol
