Of course I can't take credit for the idea.
I've seen this before and have always wanted to try it.
This seemed as good a time as any!

Thanks for the compliments all! It was lit from the bottom. I put a piece of glass between a chair and a table and covered it with a white cloth. Then I put a light under that and shone it upward. I did some photoshopping since the cloth had a real texture to it that you could see. So I made a bottom layer that was much brighter and had some Gaussian blur. Then just erased the top layer's white parts.

Does this all make sense? Hope so!
