Ethnic Lamps

[sue-a-sight.livejournal.com]

Hello everybody,
i guess its my first post here :)
I got a question: i really wanna have one of those ethnic lamps you can sometimes see on fairs, but they are too expensive for me (50-70 bucks!!)
So I thought about making one on my own, cause it can't be that hard to do. But the problem is, i have no idea about what materials would be needed to make one. Do you know any tutorial on the internet were they explain how to make ethnic lamps, or did you already made such a lamp and could explain to me how you did it??

thx in advance
