Turn on the light!


So yesterday I was inspired.
I have been wanting to do a pen and ink on a lampshade for awhile but have had a hard time finding a reasonably priced lampshade. Yesterday, while picking up an xmas gift, I stumbled upon a super nice lampshade on sale. So I picked it up. Then I hit Value Village and found a neat vintage lamp base for cheap! I sanded and painted the lamp base a nice golden yellow color. Then I free hand drew the bird on a little branch. And there you have it! My creation. It was so fun. Seeing that etsy didn't have anything similar to this, I am actually interested in making a whole line of different lampshades. So now to find more deals!
