I have always maintained what I feel is a healthy fear of electricity.
This fear has served me well except for once, last year, when I dropped my guard and attempted to fix my broken dishwasher.
“That plug is too hard to get to” I thought and cavalierly launched in despite the pool of standing water in the bottom of the unit.
Later, after my body stopped twitching, I got off the floor and renewed my vow leave electricity alone. And I have stuck by that.
Until now.
OK, I realize that preamble probably doesn’t scream TRUST ME but, I had no idea that it was so easy to make a lamp!
Honestly, I’m a little annoyed that I didn’t know this before.
I’ve made a lamp from plumbing pipe and some vintage maps and it is my second tutorial for Amy over at Mod Podge Rocks – so head on over to MPR if you’re intrigued. Just click on the picture below:
Also, if you haven’t gotten hooked on Amy’s blog previously – take a look around – she is the source of a seemingly endless stream oft terrific projects and ideas.
So, to sum it up: Electricity: Not to be toyed with. Lamps. Way easy!
