a gift for mom

so my mom’s birthday is on its way…she is one special lady and deserves everything good in life. she however is very difficult to find gifts for. she tells she wants us to get her nothing, or something ridiculous like a new ironing board cover. needless to say, every time it is time to give her something to show how much i love and appreciate her, it takes quite a bit of brain power to come up with something. this time…i think i have found the perfect thing.

while browsing on anthropoligie’s website, i found a super fun lamp that was stacked dishes…well it was way out of budget…but i thought with some help of the boy named paul i could conquer it. i am so pleased on how it turned out.

in the middle of the project i realized i had to buy a $20 bit, lamp kit, lamp rod, shade, cute dishes, spray paint, and fabric, plus the couple of hours of work to figure it out. so i decided to get my money’s worth and make 3…if you are interested they are up for sale at SB ETC…Fully functioning lamp…but better because it is one of a kind.

peace friends Heidi Lynn
