Be flexible.
OK.
I picked this lamp up a while a go but the intriguing part of the lamp was the shade.
We all know with the Fou in La Maison Fou craziness is something that goes with the territory.
Enter hot weather, kiddos and animal running amuck and you can get the picture.
The base before the transformation.
After using some tools of the trade you can start with the light kit from Ikea.
Uber inexpensive and highly useful for creative projects.
The inner workings of the lamp base.
The base was unfortunately dropped and had to be repurposed.
This went from this......
After taking the lampshade apart from the base insert the Ikea light kit and insert into the middle of the lampshade base.
The base seems to be resin, but has these great almost crystal like circles infused into the shade in amber, pumpkin and umber shades.
To this.......
A hanging pendant with a well lit future.
