Over the weekend, while catching up on some project ideas, I found this amazing tutorial for a Whirl-It Lampshade from Pickels.
I am pretty sure I’ll be making one of these lights in the near future. And with just a few basic supplies, you can make one for your home too. Read the full tutorial here.

Oh this is awesome! We’re in the need for a light fixture for our bedroom and this looks real cool!! I think we might just give this DIY a try!

I’ve made these, but never with wallpaper glue!

They turned out amazing. Used some as decorations at a fundraiser, and cut the tops off some of them too to make ‘nests’ to hold the easter eggs I made last year. Got so many comments on them! Its a really easy project.
