The best thing about Winter for me is, that I am able to stay in out of the cold and create! This peticular day, I decdied to combine a tired looking vintage crystal lamp with ceramic teacup, saucer and teapot.
I took the old crystal lamp apart and cleaned all the pieces.
You just don't realize how easy it is to drill holes in ceramic and glass with a special drill bit that you can purchase at any hardware store. Just drill it under water to keep the drill bit moist and it will drill fairly easy.
So, after drilling all the key pieces, I just spent some time stacking each piece on a lamp rod till I got what was pleasing to my eye, and then wired it up for electricity.
Easy peasy and I'm so in love with this one that I am going to keep it...at least for a while.
Here is a picture with a black display board behind it so you can see the details better.
