    Buy a lamp kit and non-shrink grout. But lamp kit in boot and pour mixed grout in the boot. Then buy a lamp shade and wrap the shade with the cowhide

    Because of the height and configuration of a boot, I think I would attach the boot to a nice heavy base (block of wood...maybe something rustic, or a nice rock) and then follow Brad's instructions for a lamp. If you can find a tall, straw cowboy hat, that would make a neat shade!
