Shredding Some Light ! (ha)

Wandering through the local Thrift Store, I came upon these graters. Two large, one-sided graters. So I bought them... didn't have any idea what I would do with them ..but suddenly a light went on in my head....


A LIGHT !

I have a weakness for making anything into a lamp.
Is there anything GRATER ! ?? 
(ok I'll stop now)

A big thank you to my DBF for bringing this to life.  xox

  10. Went to an Artists' Show last week and one of the artists made a lamp from an old blender. A chef purchased it. It was terrific! The artist removed the blade, wired it, and used a CFL bulb. The spiral bulb added to the decoration.
