DIY Snowman Lamp

Woo Hoo!

So, let me just tell you how excited I am to be a part of

Hometalk and LampsPlus

Holiday Lamp Challenge!

If you’re looking for great home ideas and advice,

then Hometalk is the place for you!

And, if you are looking for the perfect lighting,

LampsPlus has got you covered!

So, how appropriate that they team up

because great lighting is key to a great looking home!

And, how exciting that I get to design a lamp for this contest 🙂

Here is what I came up with:

And, here is how I got there 🙂

My first thought…

…Yippee! a fantastic new lamp for my daughter’s room!

Versatile…

modern…

beautiful…

So, I knew that after the holidays were over,

I would want to continue to use this lamp in her room.

My second thought…

…it looks like a snowman.

So, I gathered my snowman supplies.

Supplies:

3 bags of fake snow

orange felt nose

assorted black buttons

glue dots (these are easily removed after the holidays)

Using the glue dots,

I decorated the shade as a snowman face.

I filled the lamp with 3 bags of fake snow,

and added a cute scarf made from the sleeve of an old sweater

complete with pom poms.

In about 15 minutes,

I had the perfect snowman lamp for my daughter’s room 🙂

Which matches her pom pom wreath perfectly!

Thank you Hometalk and LampsPlus for allowing me to be a part of this great challenge!

I look forward to seeing all of the other lamps!

Life to the full!

Since it’s 90+ degrees here I’m not ready for winter/fall yet either but it’s sure a great thought. Your lamp is so blasted cute, what a great idea and so versatile, can make great use of that lamp, what other kinds of characters will you make with it next? You’re so smart. Happy, happy

After I initially commented I appear to have clicked on the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and from now
on every time a comment is added I recieve 4 emails with the exact
same comment. Is there an easy method you are able to remove me from that
service? Thanks!
