Another Funky Lamp
This one started with a pewter teapot. It sits on a wood toy part and a 1950s saucer. The bark is a vintage nut bowl. There are miniature cue balls for feet. The lid is "blowing" off by means of a large spring. There are Lite Brite pegs embedded in the teapot and when it is lit up the pegs glow and light spills out of the spring lifted lid. You can see it in the shop here.
And Yet Another
This one is a vintage cocktail shaker from the 1930s. The top is the plastic handle from a screwdriver. The shaker sits on an inverted 1950s bowl and saucer. The bark is a vintage nut bowl and the feet are miniature cue balls. The body is studded with Lite Brite pegs. When the lamp is turned on the yellow plastic top and the Lite Brite pegs glow in glorious color. You can see it in the shop here.
