From boring kitchen lamp to faux stained glass geek light
Homie, Sarakenobi turned her kitchen pendant light from boring to BAZINGA! when she used a faux stained glass technique in the nerdiest possible way. And it’s pretty damn Marvelous… Doctor Who-ious… and Harry Potter-ious…

I realize that if you’re not a fan of Doctor Who then this post doesn’t mean much to you, which is why I made the subject line as blatantly obvious as I could — feel free to skip on over it. But FYI Whovians in the house: we have a treat for you today!
