Recycled Craft #9 - A Most Sublime Lace Lamp!

This lamp is downright swoon-worthy! Crafted from a pile of old grandma-doilies, Shannon South of reMade USA has created this super stunning, lace pendant lamp. What a brilliant mash-up of reused Victorian elements into a hip Mid-Century Mod form! Go check it out on her site and poke around to see her classy upcycled leather jackets-to-bags shop.  She's definitely got the clever re-crafting action going on!

Up for some of your own DIY lamp making?  I found this tutorial from the DOS Family blog that might help you on your way.  And if you've got a hankering for some color for your lamp, remember most of grandma's doilies are made of cotton and will dye up quite easily. Some newer ones might be polyester and not dyeable. So for those it's best to just stick with the white.
