Hanging Map Light!




What a cool and fun project this was...







And so easy to do!







Here's how I did it...







My daughter moved out of state and when she left our rental house, she left this behind...



A simple paper shade.  Now I can't take credit for what I am about to show you because I saw it somewhere...I just don't remember where!



Knowing me, I didn't want to throw away a good paper lantern, so I got out my scallop circle punch from my scrap-booking supplies and some old maps and punched away.



Working from the bottom to the top, I simply hot glued each circle on the paper lantern making sure to overlap just a bit. That's it! EASY! Here is how it came out!



And when plugged in and lit...













Such a warm glow and so interesting!
