"I have a thing for novelty lamps... one day while I was at the thrift store staring at the lamp section, inspiration struck. I knew I had to try to create a tulip lamp with this $3 thrifted gooseneck desk lamp."
"I was about to give it some major style (and color). Before starting, I absolutely needed to get the colors right, so I went to Blick and stared at the giant wall of spray paint for a solid half hour until finding the perfect shades of red and green."
"Roofing supplies - yes, really! - came in handy for creating the leaves... quite a few people suggested roof flashing, so I picked up a roll at The Home Depot and was surprised how affordable it was ($12 for a 10-foot roll)."
"It turns out, all I needed to cut the material was scissors, and it cut beautifully... use caution (wear protective eye gear and gloves!) when working with it, but I was easily able to cut off a manageable size to work with."
