Periodically, Lynn will do a feature on "repurposed stuff that city dwellers think is cool because they thought it up, but which they would think was "redneck" if someone in "flyover country" thought it up."

lamp from old washing-machine drum.

I don't know - while it would probably work somewhere like an entryway where you don't need lots of light, I'd find the little pinprick dots annoying for task-lighting. (And as one of the commenters on the site pointed out: you have to paint the thing black or some other contrasty color; if you used it just as it came out of the machine, it would scream "old washing machine part!" and you don't want that.)
