The Slide Show
Lamp Shade

Now that a digital camera has become nearly as essential to going abroad as a passport, slide shows are a thing of the past-much to everyone's relief. Still, it's hard to resist the appeal of those palm-sized transparencies. Here's a way to put vacation photos on display without holding friends captive.

Link a group of slides taken at some far-flung locale together to create a lampshade that offers a colorful, indoor escape-from bad lamp design, if nothing else. On your next excursion, bring along a few rolls of slide film (bonus: it's less expensive than the print variety) and try taking thematic shots of bad motels, perhaps, or exotic plant life. Sure, you'll have to go to the photo lab to get them developed, but it's worth the trip. I mean look at this thing! Learn how to make one yourself, email [email protected], subject line: Slide Show Lamp.
