Transforming a Student Globe to a Basketball Floorlamp for Themed Room

Take a globe and cut low enough that the globe looks like a ball and enough for the shade to fit on top of a torchlight style floorlamp.
Paint the inside black, and add grommets to the outside to give off more light and release heat from bulb and along the bottom as a way to attach net. Finish raw edge with black grosgrain ribbon.
Place shade on top of torch style floorlamp and use a low watt bulb.
Great affect and accent for any sport theme room. Designed for the Parade of Homes 2014 by TayRose Design www.tayrose.com
