It really appears that many of you love the simple ‘slam it together and be done’ projects. So here’s one I whipped up today!
This is my lamp in the bedroom.
The shade is nothing more than ripped strips of loose cotton material draped over the top, then held in place with a tied strip around the works. The glow it casts in the evening is pretty cool.
The original tutorial is HERE.
I just wanted to add a bit more bling. So I layered some stainless kitchenware type pans together. A pizza pan, one for flann and the top one is just a heavy duty serving plate. It was fun to pile them up to see what they’d look like.
And a special touch was adding two of my fav necklaces created by the awesome Rochelle from What Lola Wants Lola Gets.
JUNK GIRL appears to be a flattened out spoon head. Am I right Rochelle?!? I LOVE IT!
You can see more of Rochelle’s beautiful work from a photoshoot I did HERE on Fieldstone Vintage Market.
Hey, I’m all ready for Valentine’s Day too! 🙂
Why stick with normal when you can have this?!? 🙂
No idea! What’s normal anyway. I sure ain’t. Love that little romatic lamp with the rustic pans. Add a seastar and it would qualify for my industrial coastal cottage thing.
Love those necklaces! I have a spoon necklace and bracelet too. And I love them.
That’s right Donna..normal is boring. I love your lamp. very you, original and one of a kind for sure~
Very cute! Love the way you stacked it on the pie tin, etc. And the “bling” is cute!
Happy Valentine’s Donna! You cute, quick lamp will cast just the right mood lighting 😉 Love Rochelle’s jewelry!
Love the whole slammin’ thing~from the fabric strip shade to the bling. And the pie plate? That is so out of the box Donna style, and it looks completely normal!! ha!
I LOVE IT!!
I swear, Donna, you could take a lump of coal and turn it into something wonderful! Another terrific project to get all our creative juices going!
So very cute Mz FJI Donna!! As always you give life to any room of the house and all the decor! oxxo 🙂 Christina
So very cute. Thanks for sharing.
Cute, different and just what I would expect from Funky Junk Interiors. I can’t wait for Cody to look for the pizza pan and finds it in the bedroom….I would love to see his
face. I know by now he expects anything. {{{Chuckle Chuckle}}}
Love the lamp and that bling sets it off!
Your creative mind is inspirational.
Have fun,
Cheryl
FUN!….thank you….smiles
Really, really cute little “slam and done” project! As to your last statement- I will NEVER be accused of being normal. xo Diana
so cute, I love me some bling…keep up the inspiration. I just got a cute bird house table lamp at a thrift store for my outdoor space 🙂 It did not come with a shade so I have to come up with a creative one or go buy one. I prefer the first option. It just has the light bulb to hold the shade on no metal thingy. You are so crafty any ideas for me? I will be sharing on my blog when all done. From your new follower & new blogger Lori@ Color It Simple. Would love for you to visit and join me!
I love this idea! The pans and beautiful jewelry are the perfect finishing touches.
This just turned out lovely! 🙂
I love it. I don’t do normal, people, furniture, dogs. Now why have a normal lamp? Boring! Your is awesome.
What a great way to reinvent this lamp. Thanks for the post.
Is there any concern of fire with the cotton near the lightbulb? Love to hear anyone’s thoughts or tips!
What a lovely lamp. I think this is fit in my condo in Philippines. 🙂
