Our topic now is about how to make your own version of lampshade, it means that i'm gonna show how it was done and made every single step.

Lampshades mostly seen near your bed and sometimes at the living room near the sofa. Lampshades are the best alternative to conserve electricity bill at your home like when you're going to sleep at night instead you use the main light at your room you'll just use the lampshade as your light the whole night and by doing that you can help to conserve electricity bill.

There many kinds of lampshades out there at the market there are cheap ones and there are also the most expensive. But if you like to save up some money why not make your own version? trust me its pretty simple.

Here are the materials needed for this project:

  • Ring Metal/Wires
  • Pliers
  • Scissors or Cutter
  • Glue
  • Fabric or Cardboard
  • Bulb
  • Bulb Holder
  • Electric Wires
  • Male Plug
  • Switch
  • Lamp Stand (You can use metal, wood, bottle, plastic, etc.)
1. First step you need to make a ring for your lamp if your gonna make a round lampshade but you can also make it square shape and its more easy than round. Now you should find some wire metals to do it and if you already have it get your pliers and shape it like a ring or square. However if you have old lampshade rings you use it also. Just make sure there is a place where you can put the bulb holder.

2. Then if you finish the brace of your lampshade, you can now put the fabric or cardboard to cover it up. Just trace it first using the brace and put marks on the fabric or cardboard then cut it out and get the glue and paste it around the brace. You can use any patterns or colors for your shade its up to you.

3. If you are done doing the shade of your lamp then its time to setup the light. For this step you'll need a bulb, electric wires, switch, male plug, and the bulb holder. Just make sure you're familiar or have a little skill about wiring the electric lights if not don't do it by yourself just ask for help somewhere near you or just make some research on the internet on how is the proper wiring. Just don't do it if you don't know it may cause you problems like short circuits at your home. Then if you get what i mean just put it all together and try if its working.

4. Next is the stand of the lamp, there many options in this step you can use metal, wood, bottle, or plastic stand. Or like what just i said before if you have an old lampshade you can get its stand as your stand of your new lamp. Just make sure you can place there your bulb holder.

5. And lastly after you finish all the steps above, you are now going to put it all together as one. Just get the shade you made before and place it on the top of your stand and make sure you put the bulb inside the stand. And your done!

Here's the guide on how to make a shade on your lamp.

Coffee table is house furniture that you'll usually found at the dining room in front of the sofa. It has many variations of use such as: you can place your coffee of course, you can place magazine and book, and etc. Coffee table is important cause it adds design on your house and formality.

Somehow many houses don't have this kind of table, maybe for some different reasons like they can't afford it or its really out of the budget. And yes we all do have financial problems that's why I'm here for you to save up some money and to have this Coffee Table at your dining room.

I'm gonna share this trick on how to make your own coffee table from recycled materials, just make sure you will follow all the steps from start to end. 

Like what I said from before you can build your own strong and elegant coffee table from scratch! But I personally recommended that you must copy first the design of the table that I'm gonna show to you to lessen failures. And if you mastered doing this then you can build your own design. Got it?

Of course its needed to have a carpenter skill for more success rate. And please pay attention to the video tutorials and you can also see their what things you'll needed to perform this DIY project. But if you can't do it, why not hire a real carpenter I'm sure it will ease and save your time.

NOTE: If your just a kid and you found this interesting. For your own safety I personally advice please go to your guardian and explain it all to them and don't do it by yourself because it might cause you an accident. That's why please ask some help on your elders.

Okay now are you ready? I bet your really excited to make your own version of coffee table. Here just follow up this man on the video tutorials and start plan and build your own too.
