The power of the play of light has long been proven in terms of organizing comfort and coziness in the house. Sconces, floor lamps, lamps - each of these lighting devices creates its own unique contribution to the overall surroundings of the apartment.
Sometimes, looking at a truly interesting and non-standard thing, we mentally try it on to the interior of our house. It doesn’t matter where you saw the masterpiece you liked - visiting friends, in a store, at an exhibition or found in the vast expanses of the Internet. If the idea that this lamp is the only thing that you currently lack for complete happiness is endlessly gnawing and dreaming of living, then there is a great way out of the situation - try to create it with your own hands. Moreover, most often, for a creative experiment, you can use the simplest objects and unnecessary things that are lying around in an apartment.

Lamp


As an example, here is such a wonderful romantic lamp created in one evening from improvised means

We needed:
• foam sheet (left from the time of repair and insulation of the balcony)
• 2 packs of small lace napkins
• packaging of an old, half-broken garland
• stapler
• glue hot gun
• masking tape

from improvised means


From the foam sheet we cut out a circle of the diameter that you determined for your future lamp.

Inside the circle, create an empty space.

We cut out another circle, but you can make the interior space square, and paste the clock or picture there. It will also be very interesting and beautiful.

several times with a tape


Next, we wrapped in a circle the resulting hoop several times with paper tape.

Mark with a pencil


This must be done for 2 reasons: so that the polystyrene does not crumble, and so that our jewelry can be glued to it (the circle).
We note with a pencil or pen the approximate location of the garland bulbs.

Fold them in half


Glue the bulbs in marked places using strips of paper tape.
When the bulbs are glued, you can begin to prepare napkins. We fold them in half, and stack them in a wave, fastening the bottom with a stapler.

First one


Glue napkins to the front of the lamp with a hot gun. It’s worth starting with lighting elements. 3-4 napkins around each bulb, trying to keep it in the middle, evenly surrounded by napkin lace. First one, then second, third, and so on, in order.

then the second

in order

fill the remaining space


When all the bulbs are neatly surrounded by napkins, you need to fill the remaining space.

The lamp is ready


That's all. It remains only on the back side of the lamp to attach a loop for attaching to the wall and gently hang it in the selected place.

The lamp in work


Literally in one evening you can create a magnificent present friends, or an amazing decoration of your own home. Do and do, and let luck smile at you, looking at your miracles.
