I made this lamp with my bare hands!


So I have been trying to be a lil' bit creative and I wanted to make a lamp out of this bottle I found at a store called World Market. World Market (for those who don't know) is like a Pier One but with wine too. Neways, I found this pink cat bottle there with wine in it of course and after draining it (into my tummy!) I thought it would be cool to try to make a lamp out of it. I didn't do very well in making a hole at the bottom and don't bother buying a glass cutter if you think that would work b/c it didn't. It broke into three pieces but I got some super glue and that did well in putting it back together. I got a lamp with a discounted price of 1.98 in Michigan. The only thing was that it was still a lamp so I had to cut the wire to thread everything out of it and then repair the damage with some electrical tape. It actually works though! You're probably asking why go through so much trouble? I dunno that answer but it's cool now and all I need is a lamp shade to complete this lil' project of mine. Here are my scraproom colors ( I meant to put scraproom but so use to typing scrapbook its burned into my brain I guess):So if you're reading this and want to reply (not criticize-its my room not yours) what color I should use as the shade I would appreciate it. Thanks!
