Unconventional Material
In this piece I had a few challenges, after making the four sides of the lamp I realized that the sides didn't fit together correctly. To make the sides fit I had to make a base and work up. I also had issues with making the actual lighting. I loved the light effect the piece makes when the light is on. In the future I may paint the bottle cap (that is holding the light) white so the red doesn't shine through. I picked to make a lamp because I had needed one for my room and felt the clothespin was perfect. I had thought about making a clothespin dress but when I was getting ideas online I found that was common, therefore I went with the original idea of the lamp.
