We just happen to like our whiskey...
Or maybe that's just me. (ABF is under Dr.'s orders not to imbibe.)
Amazing Boyfriend and I decided to make another whiskey bottle lamp. Last year in April, we showed you how to make your own lamp from a whiskey bottle, but if you missed that post you can find it here.
This time we used a Pendleton Whiskey bottle, which took a little bit more modification since the cap for the bottle is cork, but ABF figured it all out with an extra part from the hardware store.
But the best part is the little addition I made to the lamp shade!
Pretty awesome, right?
In case
Yeah, I might have needed a drink after something such a tedious endeavor...
just kidding...
maybe...
(hey, I have to get the bottles to make these lamps somehow!)

Well I'll have to start drinking whiskey to be able to make one of your really cute lamps. Really like the cowboy stencil on the shade, bring shade and lamp together. Really cute. Thanks for sharing your creative inspiration at Sunday's Best. PS - Now following you on Linky - please follow back!

ReplyDeleteThe lamp are beautiful I'm going to try to make one out of Gin, I will empty the Bottle by making myself and friend a big punch bowl Drink and drink while making the lamp,not we'll drink after. ha ha
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this lamp!! Was just curious as to what the extra part was that made this work compared to the Crown bottle?? Also, did you just drill a hole through the cork?? Would love to try and make one of these for my brother! Thanks for your help!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Erin
Love it! I've got a ton, uh, a few Pendelton bottles that I've been trying to decide what to use them for and I think I found it! What was the extra part that was needed to make the lamp functional?
ReplyDeleteI have a dozen of these bottles, curious to know how you did the lamp shade and what's in the bottle? If you don't mind sharing your awesomeness!
