Post#3 transforming the everyday

Leaf lamp starting to take shape, it seems to be taking on a life like form. The base is a wooden fruit bowl turned upside down with holes drilled round the edge to insert willow and other bendy wood I found bent in an arc from one side to the other. The leaf canopy has been hand seen together to cover the dome like shape.
Loosely tied round the dome, not yet enough to fully cover the twig dome, at this stage I am wondering how many more leaves I need to collect and treat in glycerin!!!

The back of the lamp, shows the hole in the fruit bowl and dome shape to be covered with leaves
