This project will be a gift for my mom.

This lamp was purchased Joe Dollar. Base and shade are blue frosted glass. There was one other design, with a taller, straight base, and there were three other color choices.

The shade is just resting on the metal 'shade holder' which is attached to the tea light candle holder. I don't know if I'll paint the metal part, but that's defniately an idea.

Here you can see that the metal part is removable. It's threaded to screw onto the glass base. The base is hollow, of course, and that made me think of putting something inside. Colored marbles would work, but that would clutter up the bead design I intend to do.
I wonder if scent inside the bottle would do anything?

Album: Deciding on beads
The next step in the process is to decide what beads I'll be using. Open this album to see the different choices I'm deciding between. Please feel free to leave comments on the blog, or e-mail me your opinins. beads(at)technicolorday(dot)com
