DIY: Container Upcycled Into CHOCODAISY Lampshade

This design is called ChocoDaisy. I’ve tried lots of designs using these 9 Nesquik chocolate powder containers. None of them gave me the result I was looking for. I wanted the design to be simple. It is a matter of trying and keep on trying. The thing is, afterwards, when you look at the design, it doesn’t look difficult at all.
You can find a full post about the ChocoDaisy with tutorial, material list and photos on my blog:

    This is cool lit up but doesn't it look like chocolate milk containers glued together when not?

      @Susan Rogers Garton Thanks for your comment. When I exhibited this lampshade last year at a big interior fair 90% of the visitors didn't recognize what item was used until I told them. And then they showed a big smile :-) By the way, they are not glued together. Tried it, but it can't beat tie-wraps.

    Absolutely fantastic. Like it when someone thinks outside the box or in this case the container...
