I decided to give them a try and this is what I ended up with I bought a 3.5 x 9 inch straight sided glass vase at the dollar store, drilled a hole in the bottom, fitted it with a light fixture, glued burlap to the glass and painted on some geometric Polynesian designs. Google suggested ModPodge to stick the burlap to the glass, I'm skeptical that it will stick. I want to make 2 more but I will see how well this one holds up.
