Table Lamp

As the days grow shorter and the nights get longer, we need more light at night. Lamps of all kinds help create a pleasant atmosphere. 

What you need: 

• A small round cheese box ( 4 or 5 inches in diameter)
• Drawing paper (15 x 7 inches)
• Scissors
• Pencil
• Glue
• Old newspapers
• A cup
• Salad oil
• Brush 

How to make a beautiful table lamp:

1. Choose a piece of light color drawing paper  (yellow, orange or light red). Measure a rectangle with a ruler 15 x 7 inches  and cut out.
2. Color the rectangle with pastels by pressing very hard. The patterns of leaves or fall fruits are particularly suitable. Or for Christmas you can make a reindeer, Santa or a snowman.
3. Glue the bottom edge of your beautiful picture and attach it to the edge of the bottom of the cheese box.
4. Cutting the top of the lid of the cheese box to leave a cardboard ring. Glue it on the inside of the top edge of your lamp.
5. Close the lamp by bringing the two edges of the paper together and glue.
6. Next, covers your work space with a good layer of old newspapers. Pour a little oil in a cup. Apply the oil with a brush, starting at the top. It does not take much oil: drawing paper readily absorbs and diffuses itself down.
7. When the oil is dry, places a tea light inside the lamp. Light the candle always in the presence of an adult!
