Joey's Dream Garden
Milky 120 Lampshade and me in the garden
I am not a number! ;-)
I made this lampshade (although it won't be used as a lampshade at this size) using the IQ light system invented by Danish designer Holger Strom in 1972. The best thing about my lampshade though, is that it's made from 120 pieces of translucent plastic cut from 120 4-pint milk bottles! We've been saving them for a while and I finally got around to cutting the 'modules' and then fitting them together. I documented my first venture into milk bottle lampshades on my blog, link here if you're interested: joeysdreamgarden.blogspot.com/2009/01/free-lampshade-with...
