I saw a pin on Pinterest a few weeks back about
drawing on a light bulb with a sharpie. When I clicked on the post there weren't really any directions other then if you draw on a light bulb with a sharpie then the designs will show up on the walls.
I immediately thought of the scene in
Mermaids where the kids and Lou paint a room to look like the bottom of the ocean and have fish 'swimming' around the walls.
How cool would it be for my son to have star and planet shadows around his room!?!?!
I grabbed a regular bulb
and used my mad artistic skills to draw some stars and planets
The Verdict: Nothing. I had to put the bulb right next to the wall to get even a hint of shadow. But I wasn't entirely disappointed. The bulb looked pretty cool with the shade off, so I decided to keep it that way.
As I was putting the lamp back on the nighstand, without the shade, my daughter walked in and had this reaction......
The bulb is now in a cealing socket in another room and shade has been placed back on the lamp.
