Sand lamps
Norman A. Plate
Sand lamps
Make rustic lamps from flowerpots

WHAT YOU NEED: Flowerpots, masking tape, sand, candles, hurricane-lamp chimneys

Flowerpots take on a new life as sand lamps. After making a quick plug with masking tape over the inside of the drain hole, fill each pot with sand and insert a candle. Shield the candles from wind with hurricane-lamp chimneys.
