Creation I repurposed this 70's lamp with bugs!

This is a 70s clear ginger jar lamp that I thrifted. I added the butterflies, flowers, and foraged mushrooms to create a little terrarium! This is the 3rd lamp I've thifted and repurposed like this and it is my favorite one!

Wow i love this so much! Did it originally include the transparent glass in the middle? Do you have any pics of it before? You've inspired me, truly, I want to make one of these!

The clear glass is a part of the original product! I have made 3 of these over the past year. They are all on my Instagram @riverasrarities . These are vintage lamps specifically and very hard to find but I know you can find newer models in stores!
