My Lamp

I've always wanted to photograph this lamp. My sister and I made it years ago and I just love it! We found the lamp on sale but it was very boring. My sister has the coolest fabrics and beads so we went back to her place and made it come alive. Now, it gives off a very warm feeling and I love the memories behind it. Oh, and tilting the lamp shade was done on purpose for this image only... I really don't have a crocked lamp shade! I thought it would help make a boring lamp picture a little more interesting.
Awesome fabric!

The beads were very tricky to add but give it such a great look!
