Creating a Glass Lamp Base With $1 Candlesticks

Everyone knows these $1 candlesticks you see at Dollar Stores. I have had this idea in mind for a while to stack several of hem to create a glass lamp base like you see in Home Stores. Using 3 candlesticks, a Glass Jar Lamp KIt and stencil, I created a cute little lamp for my Sitting Area chest. Cost with all supplies - less than $15.
Here is the completed lamp with a custom-stenciled shade.
I added some jute detail on the base...
then added two small keys as a cute accent.
A stencil and craft paint decorated a plain shade I already had from a broken lamp. (Hop over to my blog to see how I did this)
Here is the lamp sitting on my little blue chest.
