Continuing with our Best of DIYs all summer long, today we're bringing back this awesome pendant lighting DIY by Arounna of Khounnoraj of Bookhou. Back in 2010 we were thrilled when Arounna of Bookhou was visiting us monthly with some of her amazing DIYs. One of our favourites (although all of them were really amazing), was this Woven Veneer Lamp. Made with strips of wood veneer, Arounna showed us how to make a cool pendant perfect to place above a dining room table, or even bedside. Check it out below.
Materials Needed:
-strips of wood veneer (you can also get 3/4 in. veneer at the hardware store that is for ironing on the edge of shelves - you can also use strips of paper)
-white glue
-large clips (or clothes pins) - I started with four and found I needed more as I went along
-scissors
-HEMMA ikea light
-pen
-small piece of cardstock
Safety alert * use a low watt bulb and ensure material chosen is not touching or close to the bulb.
Step 1-2
Take the strip of wood veneer and make a circle shape to the desired size you want your lamp to be. place a small amount of glue to the attachment and hold with clip.
