Original Lamps - Do It Yourself
Heyyyy! How is everyone? I'm sorry for being away all these weeks! I've been so occupied! Well, today I have some Original Lamps ideas to show you. Hope you like it!
1 - Teddy Bear Lamp
How to make it : First you have to do the unthinkable - cut a teddy bear's head off. After the sacrifice, find a wood/plastic tube and a base of the same material. The tube you will have to put it inside the Teddy Bear like if it was his spinal cord and the base you will put it under his butt like if it was sitting in it. Then put them together with a clamping screw (tube inside and base out side). After that put a lamp holder(like the one below) in the other point of the tube. After this put the cable, the lamp and the abajur.

2 - Liquid Lamp
This one is easy to make: First choose your abajur (lampshade) and the color, in the photograph they choosed red. Put it lying on its side in a flat surface with a plastic over. If your abajur is made of fabric or if you think the paint will pass to the other side put some wood glue all over the surface you are going to paint on and let it dry really well. Then, paint it inside with the color you choosed (if you think it needs another layer of paint, let dry the first one and then paint it again). Once you paint it, put a big quantity(the quantity you think it will be enough for your "liquid" efect) of paint and holding it with the plastic over tilts the surface to the liquid drain to where you want and let it dry really well!

3 - Circle Lamp
How to make : Connect the Lamp Holder and the Cable. Make a circle with a wire and secure it to the Lamp Holder. Make forms, this case is circle, of a resistent material and, with glue, paste each one to each point of a wire. Secure all the wires to the circle which is in the Lamp Holder and put them in the place you want.
