On the 15th of every month we look at Pinterest for inspiration. If you haven’t checked out Pinterest yet then you should…..soon. It is like an online pin board where you can pin all the great ideas you come across on the internet. More about it here.
Today we take a look at a few fabulous light fixtures that you can make your self. You’ll be surprised at what most of them are made of! Like this diy chandelier by Parlour. Any guesses as to what this is made of?
I bet you wouldn’t have thought of….coffee filters? 🙂 Ya, that is made by gluing coffee filters onto a round paper lantern! A variation of this using cup cake liners is also very popular.
How about this chandelier from a wedding tent made by Ruffled?
The bride made the light using wine glasses, old vases, and other glass containers that she found at thrift stores!
This modern orb diy chandelier was made with galvanized wire and hanging light kit by Hommaker. Totally cool!
Have you DIY’ed lamps? How did it go? I’ve been thinking of doing one for my closet. Any tips?

Great inspiration photos! I’m thinking of doing one for the laundry room but haven’t come across the PERFECT idea yet. I’m hoping it’ll just strike like lightning. Right now. 🙂

Thanks Kelly. Glad you dropped by. I’m not even going any where near my laundry room, even to decorate. 🙂 Hands down the only chore that really hate to do.

Thank you Kara. Ya, I was wondering the same thing too. Maybe with a low wattt light and in a place like that doesn’t get constant use?
