Aluminum Foil Lamp

Aluminum Foil Lamp
I dreamed about making this lamp for two weeks before I actually put it into execution. I saw the design in my head but I was unclear on how to implement it. This is one of my favorites. I love it.

My Newest Creations



OBAMA
I created this wind chime out of beer bottles found while dumpster diving. 


Sparkle Ball
Created from cups left over from a wedding that I attended.


I pulled this pot out of the dumpster. It was a dirty grey container that I spray painted and stuck some fake flowers in it.

These were empty bottles that I retrieved from the dumpster. I spray painted them metallic and stuck some fake flowers in them. The neighbors love this.

While visiting a yard sale, a young lady sold me this vase for $0.25. It was a dull gray that I spray painted and stuck some colorful flowers in.

THE AISHA

THE AISHA
We'll call this "The Aisha" since it was her concept that brought this to materialization.  We used can soda boxes that I collected from my Aunt Sylvia's house.

MANHATTAN

"MANHATTAN"
Created out of discarded yellow pages


CONFUSION

"CONFUSION"
This delicious canvas was salvaged from the garbage and splattered with paint that was found on the side of the road. 

REVISED LIGHTING

CD Covered Lamp
I needed more lighting so I removed the standard cover for this lamp fixture and took a CD cover, turned it upside down and drilled a hole in it and tah-dah, the rest is history.......
