DIY Faux Capiz Shell Flower Pendant Light - Addicted 2 Decorating®
I’m halfway through with Master To-Do List Item #89 — find or make bedside lighting for our bedroom. I made a faux capiz shell flower pendant light. This was one of the most time-consuming projects I’ve done, but I just worked on it a little bit each day. Some people read or crochet in the evenings to unwind and relax. I cut out petals for my pendant light.

Here’s another DIY project that fell through the cracks when I switched to WordPress. This was the very first DIY project I ever did for Addicted 2 Decorating, originally posted in July 2008, and it was before the days that I realized I needed to be taking pictures of each step of the process. Blogging DIY projects has certainly been a learning process! I hope you enjoy this blast from the past! This drinking straw pendant light is a fun and fairly easy DIY lighting project that is sure to add great texture to your room. It’s also sure to be a great conversation piece!
Turn Old Bottles Into Lamps Using Rechargeable LED Corks
This next project is one of the most spectacular so far as its visual impact is most definitely guaranteed. The corks from wine bottles are well-known to be great craft supplies in different art projects, but this one find these corks a utility too. Once you opened the wine bottle, save the corks for later and create a cool lamp by reusing the wine bottle and attaching a LED light to the cork. Use a rechargeable LED light so you can use it for a longer period and once attached to the cork, place the light inside the clean wine bottle.
DIY Doily Light: Simple Suspended-Sphere Lace Lamp Shade
So simple a child could make it – and have fun in the process, too. And the result? A shining example of how light and shadow can work together to brighten up a room. Swedish craftswoman Isabelle Dos started with a simple party-shop balloon, blown up big and wrapped in white lace place settings painted with wallpaper glue. The soaked material sticks readily to the sides of the inflated sphere, overlapping to form a contiguous shell, suspended and left to dry overnight like a plaster cast.
How to Build an Insanely Bright LED Flashlight!: 8 Steps (with Pictures)
So, because the LED in this "weapon of mass illumination" draws a lot of power, up to 100 watts (33 volts and 3 amps), it produces an insane amount of heat, so we need a heatsink to keep it cool, the one that I listed in the parts list may seem like overkill, and it is a little overkill (only a little), but so is this whole build. To provide enough power to feed this hungry beast, we will need a powerful battery that is designed for high discharge applications and compact and lightweight, this is a portable flashlight after all (rules out lead acid). The obvious solution to both of these requirements is a Lithium Polymer battery (Li-Po).

Into the Woods Projection Light
Due to its being dramatic and showstopping and incredibly F'ing rad, Hilden & Diaz's Forms in Nature forest projection light sculpture has earned viral popularity this week. To the point that the artists are planning a Kickstarter project for it, as well as currently entertaining bids from interested parties for individual fixture production. I suggest starting your bids at $1 million if you hope to beat my offer of $5.75, plus lessons on how to get: A) elegantly wasted; and B) more chicks. What? Shut up, Cornelius, everyone doesn't know already. You don't...OK yeah, Fireball and a red dragon smoking jacket for part A, but no one, no one knows my secrets about how to get the girls to come real quick, that's why they're...wait, do they involve what?

Designer Paper Yarn Lamp
Citizens of Instructables :), When I was searching for paracord in local market, I was trying to explain this guy at the craft store what I am looking for and I was having a hard time. Guess what he showed me paper yarn, trust me I did not even know what paper yarn is before this instructables. I liked it but that time I was more inclined towards paracord and it was frustrating that I was not able to find it. For the sake of experiment I bought few bunches of paper yarn (Sometimes spending money for no reason gives a strange kind of satisfaction :D) .

So, did you just realize that Halloween is a little less than a week from now? What we need to do when we don't have too much time to collect all Halloween decor...?
