## Caption

If you saw my stories over the weekend you will have seen that Coco and I made this giant peacock lampshade to go at the top of our entrance stairs, because the only light we had here was a very low level orange institutional light that automatically switched off after 30 seconds. Hopeless! Especially as I have an artist exhibiting in this space over the weekend. Anyway, I promised a picture in daylight and here it is! Swipe for a close-up. Flipping ‘ek it’s big! 😂 .
.
As this is a rental, I didn’t want to install electrics and also there’s no way of reaching the ceiling here without a huge specialist stair ladder (which I don’t have - and is dangerous). So I have created a pulley system through a small ring in the ceiling and wired up three fabric electric cords, which are plugged into a socket round the corner, so that I can haul the whole structure up and down to change the shade and the bulbs etc. I have to say, I’m very proud of it! .
.
I’ve painted the wooden window frame pink to give the whole thing a cohesive look. I LOVE painted wood!

What do you think? .
