MY CHEAP AND EASY DIY CHRISTMAS LAMP DECORATION
Urghhhh, selling my soul to a nine to five job, has made it kind of hard to keep with blogging, but I’ll try my best to do better in
the days to come.
So we all know the festive season is coming, and during this
period Christmas decorations can get pretty expensive, so I decided to make a
post on one of the christmas lamp I made last week.
The best thing about this Lamp is it doesn’t have to be
used during the festive season alone, I actually made mine for the table in my bedroom.
With that being said, lets get into it.
THINGS YOU’LL NEED
1.)
GLASS JAR OR EMPTY WINE BOTTLE ( I used an empty honey jar)
2.)
String lights
3.)
Paper rose/ or any center piece of your choice)
STEP
ONE- Pick out your holder
I decided to use a glass jar because I feel it was more ideal for a table lamp, so start off by Cleaning out the jar or wine bottle and make sure it is completely dry before you begin so it doesn't cause parts of the light to rust later.

STEP TWO-Setup your lights
Stick in string lights in a spiral pattern, leaving the switch at the bottom.
STEP THREE- Choose a center piece
I picked out a white Styrofoam rose from a bouquet of flowers my sister caught at a wedding few years ago ( she's married with kids now *winks*).
STEP FOUR- Turn on lights, lol.
At this point I had to refrain myself from leaving the lamp like this, but it was barely illuminating.
STEP FIVE-Seal Jar
I decided to place my jar upside down to hide the lid, a fancier alternative is covering your jar with a small washcloth then sealing it by tying it with a fancy thread or rope.
showing my one year old niece how to make the lamp, lol its that simple. |
It feels great to write here again, and I'll really love if you guys try this and let me know how it went.
