Here’s a supply list needed to complete this project:
- A4 thick white and black paper
- light cord
- string
- wooden beads
- pencil
- double sided tape
Instructions:
You might be surprised how easy this lamp is to make, but aren’t these kind of DIYs the best?
Fold the a4 paper into a ‘cone’ shape. and make a little mark with a pencil at the point where the paper overlaps.
4. Unfold the paper and apply a thin stripe of a double sided tape just before the pencil line.
5. Place the cord light in the middle of the paper. Remove the protective layer of the tape, fold the paper over the cord light and seal it, in a place where you added a tape.
6.Pass a string through the top of the cone lamp and add beads at the end of it. Make sure that the beads are fixed low enough to be visible.
Now your design is ready. I find it incredibly satisfying to make objects that are not only useful but also look good. For somebody like me, who likes to change things up at home constantly these are perfect solutions, because when I come up with something new, I won’t hesitate to change it. After all this DIY Folded Lampshade is made out of paper and a few wooden beads. Can you believe it?
You can also use it as a decorative mobiles, if used without the cordlight.Enjoy!
