Finished Piece
An emotional attachment to something that belonged to loved ones begins this creative journey. A lamp shade that belonged to grandparents fell into disrepair, but getting rid of it was not in the books.
Instead of rebuilding the shade, it was taken apart and the glass was thoroughly cleaned. Janet Tysiak was able to produce a glass panel using glass from the old shade and added the seedy clear glass for the background.
Grandparents’ lampshade + their daughter’s idea to make something new = a beautiful gift for her daughter’s 40th birthday! You can see more of Janet’s work at the gallery every day from 10 – 5pm – closed Tuesday.
