A great idea from Country Living ---- why not turn mixing bowls into decorative lighting?
"An enlightened take on the pendant lamp, this project uses ceramic yellowware to glowing effect. First, choose a bowl that measures at least four inches high and five inches in diameter. Turn it upside down on a flat work surface. Measure and mark the center of the bottom of the bowl. Using a power drill fit with a two-inch tile or ceramic hole saw ($9.98; sold at Home Depot stores), push squarely down on the center mark until the ceramic piece pops through the bottom of the bowl (wear a dust mask for this part). Wipe off any debris, then screw the socket from a pendant light kit ($14.94; sold at drillspot) into the hole. Install a 60-watt bulb, and hang according to kit's instructions." ----Country Living
