I have a short attention-span when it comes to hobbies. I've painted, sculpted (wood, clay, polymer clay), baked, decorated cakes, built furniture, gardened, and other short-lived endeavors.

My latest obsession is lampmaking and repair. If you can stick a wire in it you can make a lamp out of it.

Over the years I've recognized the pattern. I see something I think is cool and I say to myself, "I can do that." And usually I can.

Try something new. You may find your passion. At the least you may end up with something interesting to light your way.

(The pictures are mine. Most of the lamps I gave to friends.)

I'm only shy until you get to know me. Then you wish I was shy. 😂

nice work :)

Thanks! It's been a fun and creative outlet. Plus I've been able to gift lamps to several people.

I absolutely love this! So very creative, I never would have thought.... [runs off to find something to stick a wire into...]

It's really that simple. I constantly look at things and think, "I can make a lamp out of that."

Give it a try.

I'm gonna!! Cheers. :)
