Lamp Shade / Photo Art

Lamp Shade / Photo Art
As a photographer and creative mind, you often search for new and interesting ways to present your work. One way in which to present your work in an illuminating your work is to create a lampshade with a panoramic photograph.

For the project you will need:

1. A white Drum or Cylinder lampshade.

2. A photo (ink jet vellum paper) or collection of photos that fits the height and circumference as the lampshade.

3. Glue dots or double sided tape

The next step once you have assembled all of your stuff is to print the photo(s) on translucent paper. Then cut and measure the photos so that they fit around the shade. You may then either past the image to the inside or outside of the shade depending upon which affect you so desire. I have not yet done this project, however I will do so soon, and will of course post the results.

Thanks to Karina Berenson of Fototiller for posting the information

Wall-O-Photos…Display Your Photos

Wall-O-Photos…Display Your Photos
With the high use of digital cameras these days, I have noticed people rarely print the photos they take. Well here is a good reason to print some of your favorite shots, to make a wall-o-photos. The wall-o-photos consist of clear, plastic, hanging sleeves. You can find them at Urban Outfitters.
