Etching Fillable Lamps

Posted on February 16, 2015 by Eric Robert Posted in Blog Content, Glass Art Spotlight 10 Comments

A fillable lamp etched with a shellfish.This featured post shows the work submitted to me by Jay Swartz. She thought that everyone wouldn’t like these since the etchings are specific to Martha’s Vineyard, but I think the overall idea alone will give you some creative project ideas!
I haven’t thought of this, but she etched fillable lamps which were then filled with sand and shells to look like the beach. Just think how creative you could get here! She also shared some etched ornaments. She provided the below:

These are a few of my creations. The map is of the Island of Martha’s Vineyard, where we live and out of the scallop shell is one of our most wonderful shellfish. I am sandblasting all of them. I etch pitchers, hurricanes and all kinds of stuff that is displayed at fairs.

The fillable lamps I searched for seemed to vary but probably averaged about $100. I am not sure if Jay made these from recycled glass, but I found a few inexpensive kits below that allows you to transform bottles, mason jars or whatever you can rig up:
• Mason Jar Lamp Kit – $7.95
• Cork Stopper Lamp Kit (set of 2) – $18.63
• Bottle Lamp Kit (set of 2) – $14.95

    I have just started a couple of projects, as soon as I’m done will take pictures and send.

    I think that you have been doing a great job at informing us on how to do an assortment of projects.

    Thanks again.

    How rebmvaole are the rebmvaole splashbacks? Because we have the Jackson Pollock walls also. The builders really wasted their time putting a single row of tiles around the whole kitchen! And I’m still tempted by your fabric-covered door. Can you re-use the fabric afterwards, do you know, or is it too starched up to ever get it back to normal?

    Jay Swartz is a she, not a he. too funny, everyone assumes I am a guy

    @Jay, I hope you can forgive me for that error. I probably should have asked instead of assuming. I just never knew it was a unisex name. I know have it updated. Thank you for letting me know
