mix media lamp

A few years ago at an Art-is-you retreat, i saw this lamp made by my friend, Taryn Reece. I wanted to buy it so bad, but it was "NFS" (not for sale!). Then on vendor night this year, she had it up again in her booth. once again i tried to talk her into selling it, but she would have no part of that! (and i don't blame her). So then i decided that i would just make my own. she sells the images and fibers, so i just needed a lamp! So here is my lamp inspired by Taryn's!

----------------------------------------------------------------------
and this is Taryn's lamp. i still like hers better! probably because she used a vintage lamp with that cool base. You can find the supplies needed for your very own lamp here. the images are on paper fabric for easy sewing.
