Thank you so much Ronna! I believe I’ll use this lamp in my camper, and I think I’ve decided on the small white vase. I my spray paint it a different color. 🙂

Hi Gail,
I like the dollar store candlestick and the bottles, but my favorite is the black spring. It makes a really cute and unusual lamp. What a great idea! As always, you are an inspiration.
Thanks,
Ronna

Yay!
Happy you enjoyed looking at all of the options. The spring is so unexpected, right?

Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment.

Lori,
Thanks so much for your comment! It put a big smile on my face. I think what you’re talking about doing is a great idea. I don’t think I mentioned in the article that I hope to use this in my RV. I’ve always wanted a lamp, but didn’t want to deal with the cords.
Good luck with your project!

My favorite lamp bottle choice I believe is the spring it just looks super cool I think because it’s so unexpected and if I had to choose a bottle I agree with you with maybe having one of those blue bottles cuz the green bottle does look cool but the blue would look better I believe but thanks for the super cool ideas I love it I am in the process of trying to figure out exactly how I want to do something similar but it’s just with a lampshade that’s not a light like yours it’s just a lamp shade that came out of my RV and I got some candlesticks and a Puck light and I’m working on that right now I keep trying different ways to attach it haven’t found one I’m quite comfortable with as of yet but it’ll come to me when I least expect it but as always I appreciate seeing you do your thing because you are my inspiration for all my projects and this past year so as always it’s been a pleasure! And I do love watching all your friends do their thing as well so I’m going to go do that right now have a great night thanks again!!! Super cute by the way just so you know 💗

In reply to Girlfromwva. Thank you Nova! I think I will use one of these options to put a lamp in my camper. I've always wanted a lamp for the glow and ambience through the shade, but a dangling cord always prevented me from actually having a lamp. gail

In reply to Sarah @ Sadie Seasongoods.

Sarah,

I saw it on Amazon, and thought to myself “what do I have that I can use it for”? I had seen the “bottle lamps that have a “cork” in place. But I’m not sure they would have worked for some of the items I used.
Happy to surprise you with something you’ve never seen!
