In keeping with my mission to create my own lamps from scratch, I made a couple of table lamps for the guest room.  These are made with NovaLyte LEDs, metal jewelry findings, wood beads and a paper shade trimmed with delicate fairy lace.

I used a metal rod to keep the beads in line while the glue dried.

Before attaching the base bead, I cut a notch for the LED wire.

I painted the lamp assemblies red.

I then hand painted sunflowers on the fronts.  The dotted edge was inspired by Daisy's beautiful work using dots as a design element.  :D  Once dry, I sealed the painting with gloss finish by Delta Ceramcoat.

I attached the shade in the same manner as I had with the master bedroom lamps.  I think these work well with the overall style I have started in the guest room, and the LEDs can't be beat for the amount of light they emit.

The flowers are Bonnie Lavish dahlias.  I made the dresser with mirror, bed (and bedding) and side table as well as the llama rug and the peacock pillow.
