Beach Map Lamp Shade

Beach Map Lamp Shade

"This lamp says “We are all islands in the big blue sea” and is made with a yatching map I got at a thrift store but you can use a world map, or gift wrap. Cut nautical pictures from catalogs or magazines and find cool magazine fonts. I use a plastic bead organizer that I fill each section with alphabet letters so I have really cool fonts to play with. I got my lamp shade at a garage sale, so this lamp was really cheap to make!"
