- Check out this designer Lamp-shelf made with Dollar Tree materials. This has gotta be my favorite Dollar Tree home decor project on my channel. I added my touch of glam to both of the lamp-shelves. Even if you are a Farmhouse lover this is a DIY you can customize to go with your decor. I made two of these. Each lampshade is different but both shelves are made the exact same way. I hope you enjoy this video and are inspired. Thank you so much for watching!
Materials for this project will be for ONE lamp - Dollar Tree
13 - canvases
4 - cutting boards
1- plant hanging basket
3 or 4 - rolls sheer ribbon or gems (if gems you'll need dowels)
1 - 3 pk clear folder
1- extension cord
Zip Ties
Wire
Other :
LED Bulb
Plug in light socket
On / Off Switch
Glass Gems
Everything not Dollar Tree is all on one easy to find Amazon Page. I keep my page updated. Anything I use or purchase myself like gems, mosaic mirrors, or other supplies you can always find on my Amazon Page or just check em out to see what they look like so you can buy somewhere else in stores.
If you purchase supplies on my page it helps me a lot. I sometimes make a small commission fee which I use towards my channel.

This is the best deal on the glass gems but it's NOT the best deal overall. If you're cool with acrylic gems (btw I ordered the acrylic ones too & haven't received them yet) you can get 99ft for nearly the same price as 30ft of the glass gems. You can come back here and I'll give an update on the quality of the acrylic ones after I receive them and let you know. It should be one day this week. Today's date April 14th 2019
I used two packs of the glass gems on one lampshade.
Glass Gems amzn.to/2ImUtSO
Acrylic gems amzn.to/2KBVtV9
Chandelier gems amzn.to/2KADOwV
The chandelier gems are glass too and for some reason these aren't a lot of difference price wise as the acrylic gems. I'm so very happy with these, They're so clear and have a lot of crystal cuts in the glass.
** THE STORY THAT INSPIRED THIS DIY
A company reaches out to me and wants to work together. This company sells lamps and that's virtually all they sell. They tell me they want a dedicated video & they want to host a giveaway. After the 2nd email, I replied giving them low rates since they offered to host a giveaway. A few days later I get another email asking if my previous email was still relevant. She said again they would like to work with me & apologized for the delayed response. That was no problem I totally understood.
Since they offered to host a giveaway they would get two videos but announcing the winner in the second video wasn't all they wanted. They wanted two full-blown advertising segments with several minutes of promotion in EACH video. She wanted to know what two lamps I wanted for myself. I didn't even realize they offered me two, or so they said. I still had questions about what all she expected from me so I break it all down in an email and share what all I'd been working on regarding the giveaway which had some straight forward questions. It wasn't until the 10th email she tells me this. OH, we weren't gonna give one away to your viewers this time, we meant we wanted to do that some other time later in the future.
She goes on to say they were just gonna give me one lamp, not two. Honestly, that was fine but it's not what you said.
Creators wanna give back to their community if and when they have the opportunity. I can only hope nobody else will fall for their games. I can't say for certain but it appears I was gonna end up finding out AFTER I MADE the video that they didn't intend on sending you guys a lamp nor my supposed 2nd one.
The kicker was letting me know they don't pay for advertising & promotions. They wanted me to do all the work in return for a lamp. Another words the value of a creators time & effort for what all it takes to film, edit, create, plus the use of their equipment such as camera, lights, data, setting up, editor, editing the video itself, processor, researching their website and products, etc all that is worth the bare minimum they have invested in a lamp? If they would've just been honest from the beginning I wouldn't have created these lamp-shelves so in a way I guess I owe them a thank you.
These things are not unusual. Companies try to get over on creators all the time. I'm just happy I was able to walk away from this with a positive outcome. Hopefully bc of an email that started weeks before this diy, you're inspired to create something too & maybe keep an eye out for a company that sells just lamps, lol. Thank you for watching. I hope yall enjoy this project & the little story.

You and your work are so freaking awesome! Your name isn't Creative Living for nothing. Get it get it girl. Thanks for sharing again sissy.
Hey sister, thank you so much. I couldn't decide either. I was shocked how pretty the sheer turned out. I was excited to get this video ready for yall. I'm glad you love this diy. When I was doing the sheer lamp I thought ummm okay it needs a little something but not too much. You know I was thinking about you. Not too much.... lol. Thanks again sis, you're freaking awesome too!!! 💕💕
I love the sheer one!
Thank you Tracy
Very glam Miranda clever lady 💝
Thank you Linda 💕
You have an amazing talent...please keep sharing with us
Thank you very much Arleitha 💕 Yes ma'am I'll keep coming
I love both of them !
I love the one with the gems.
Very beautiful DIYS they turned out lovely thank you for sharing
Hey Juliet thank you so much. I'm glad you enjoyed this project 💕 💕
OMGoodness thank you! This video helped me with another project I've been thinking about for a long time but never had time to get the materials. I can just use stuff around the house. Jenga blocks.
Beautiful!!! I love the one with the gems more.
Wow I can definitely see those for big events.. you could never guess those were made with dollar tree items
Thank you so much!!
I love all of these. Great job. Great ideas.
Thank you very much Veronica. I'm so glad you enjoyed this project. 💕
Fantastic!! Amazing! Love 💕 it!!😘😘😘
Thank you so much 💕
Great video! Foot clamps for the win! And I love your strength test! 4:27
I love that sheer one!! What a great idea
Plug in light socket! That is amazing. I wish I had known about this all my life. Thank you so much that is just the best it will help me not only with projects but my life in general. ❤️
Yes yes yes yes girlfriend the plug in socket adapter is everything. I've been showing these for a while on my channel and I always here from people that didn't know they existed. Check this out ... they even make them with switches. I didn't know that until after I posted this video. I always buy them at the Hardware store. BTW Lowe's is $2. These are a HUGE game changer with diys.
Absolutely beautiful! I love them both!!
I'm a blingy gal do I prefer the gems. I do think strands of pearls between would up the glam look.. imo. Ty for the great ideas!!
I love the one with the fabric. I’m not much on bling but my bff is so I do believe I will make one of each and give her the one with the gems for Christmas and I’ll keep the other for myself.
Fun and beautiful as always!!
Thank you Tara 💕
💖Mirandah, you never cease to amaze!!Your creativity is something else. I am so glad your channel is growing🙏🏽When I first started watching you, you only had about 10,000 subs. Keep shining girl!⭐️💖💋
You are so creative! Thank you 4 this tutorial. I think I like the sheer one better.... both are beautiful.....
Aw thank you so much Lynn
Wow I love them both
Awesome craft! Will be making one! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you Paula! So glad you're making this one 💕
Nice job !!! Well done !!!! Both are my favorite!! ❤️
Thank you so much Miss Brenda 💕💕
Love it! You have given me more ideas with the shelves!
Awesome B. Carter. The shelf part is super easy and I the walls open. I'm glad you got some ideas. Thanks so much!
I like the one that has the sheer fabric better. I would put two of them in my living room.
I like the sheer one. TFS
Wowee. You went beyond beautiful and creative on this one. This is so georgeous. U r one of the most creative crafter on UA-cam. I've seen so many crafters use the bamboo cutting boards. Your is the most elaborate and useful.
So creative, I really like both.
Thank you 💕
I love the hanging acrylic gem lampshade really tre chic. This is so awesome
Thank you so much HighHeel Creation105.
Those lamps are so adorable thank you you for sharing this God Bless you and your family
Thank you very much Darlene 💕 God Bless you and yours too!
I love the sheer one!!!!
I love both of them. Your so creative. 😍💗
Thank you so much Kecia 💕 💕 💕
I think they are both very beautiful and it is nice to know that you could change it up some and add a little more color to the project by choosing a different color tulle or even gems. White is great, but I think it would look even better with a little more color to it, especially if you have children that love color and want to do something like this in their room. You can also design one that would work in a boys room too just by switching up how you decorate the shade part of the furniture.
Hi Nicole, yes you are exactly right! I love your comment. You could totally make this fit any style or theme by changing the colors. I even thought of adding some light pink in the top myself but yeah you could even change the color of the shelf if you wanted. So glad you like this idea, thank you
The gem lampshade shelf is my favorite !!! Really beautiful and elegant and awesome!!!!
Thank you Lynn. That's the one I ended up putting on my side of the couch lol 💕 💕
OMG ! I can’t even began to describe the talent you have. I’ve admired your projects for sometime. Your one of the people with your crafted designs thats prompted me to start my own page. Great Job!
AW wow thank you so much. I'm so glad you dropped a comment. I just stopped by your channel and you're doing very good. You've made a lot of nice projects. Congrats on starting your own page. I'm glad I was able to inspire you to take the first steps sharing your crafts. It's a lot of fun and I wish you the very best through your journey.
Absolutely love everything you do,I haven't seen a single video that I changed to a different channel because of the way you explain how to make the project so I know I can make these amazing items like you do,thank you for sharing and hey keep up the great job you do.
Jackie thank you so much! That means the world to me, I wish I could give you a hug for that. I always wonder if I explain myself good enough where people can understand. I'm so glad you enjoy you enjoy these videos all the way thru 💖 Thanks again!
I like the one with the crystals. Very chic!
ooh, both are beautiful, but my favorite is the sheer!💖
Wow Wow Wow. I love, love, love these lamp shelves. The one with the gems is my favorite. I am a sparkle kind of girl. They both are so pretty. You know I'm going to say it. I want it lol...The one with the gems.. Girlfriend you are a carpenter building, drilling, screwing, stapling. That is too much work for me. I would have just glued them all. I wanted to make me cubed shelf. Girl that creative mind of yours be working. Those wheels be turning. My My My. You have a gift at making anything. These lamps looks so expensive. Looks like you bought them. You go girl.. Thanks you sharing. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎🙌🙌🙌💪💪💪
Lol, thanks so much girlfriend. Yassss I know you're glam Queen. You know what I came close to gluing em but the glue doesn't dry fast enough. I can already have it put together before the glue dries lol. I'm rough on stuff anyway, I need to make things last around my clumsy self. Those cubic shelves are cute cute cute. There's so little space on each side of our couch. You remember the little plastic crates Dollar Tree had a while back? We had those on each side and these lamp-shelves replaced those. THANKFULLY! I'm so glad you like em. Thanks so much 💕 💕 💕
@@CreativeLivingLifestyles Also did you buy those clamps at the dollar tree? I need some of those.
Love the gems the most! Loving your creativity❤️❤️❤️
Than you very much Shelley 💕
The one with the gems!! 😍😍😍
I love this idea! So original and creative! They are both stunning but loved the chandelier gem lamp shade a bit more!
Thank you so much Samantha. I'm glad you love this idea 💕
I'm all for the BLING.!!!!
Thank you Sonja, looks like that's the number one fav so far 💕
You're welcome 😎
So gorgeous!!!
Love, love it
Thank you so much Lillie 💕
I love both of them, absolutely gorgeous!🙏🏻🌻
Thank you so much Tina 💕 💕
I was thinking if I can make something using canvas from dollar tree. That is a wonderful gem lamp.
Thank you Bridgett! I love these so much. I have one on each side if our couch. The shelves are so useful. I hope you do this diy, I think you'll truly enjoy it. I appreciate your comment, thanks so much 💖
I like the one with the gems.
Very pretty TFS ☺☺☺☺
I've missed you girl. I like both, but I love the sheer one. Much luv
Oh I know it, me and my big ideas lol. I could've just finished making the one I started last week but nooooo I had to make two. I ran out of materials twice so I had to stop and start several times and before I knew it it was time to go back to work before I could get the video edited. Thanks so much girlfriend, I hate missing a weekend like that.
I missed you too. Now hopefully I can stay on schedule and not get anymore crazy ideas lol. What was I thinking? Haha.
@@CreativeLivingLifestyles But you still came through hontie, like you always do. Much luv
I love both of them equally
Thank you June 😘
Girl I was loving this as soon as the video started !You did it again!This is totally up my alley!😊
Thank you so much girlfriend. I enjoy projects like this too, looks like we're on the same alley lol.😁
What an amazing idea!!
Miranda you never disappoint! This was beautiful! I always enjoy your videos!
The gem one is my favorite but they both are beautiful! 👍🏼👏
Thanks so much Puddin Tang! So great to see you 💕
Vary pretty I like the twill one.
Withe the gifted beads
Thank you so much Kellie!!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 LOVE BOTH 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much Rinny Dale 💖
Omg!! I love all 3!!
Great way to think outside the box. Love that little on/off switch too. Thanks for sharing. 💞
Thank you Becca! I'm glad you like the switch idea. I was on Amazon yesterday and found something new. They make em now with the socket plug in and the switch all in one so you reach up in the lamp like you would an actual lamp and flip it on and off. Since you said that I thought I'd share it with you. I've gotta get one so I can share about it. So glad you enjoyed this, thank you 💕 💕
I love d gems & d last vase one
I really like them both they something different and u can put stuff on the shelf
Thank you Lea 💕
@@CreativeLivingLifestyles u welcome u my inspiration for crafting
These were amazing & inspiring!!
Dang! What a story!! SMH

Beautiful I love them both. I am always waiting for diys.
Thank you so much Ida ❤
I like the 1 at the end the cabinet version..was looking 4 a link n the description box!ty 4 sharing they are all beautiful!!
Great idea. The both are so beautiful
This lamp shelf is awesome. I like the one with the gems just a little bit better, but they were both awesome. I'd also like if you used fabric with a pattern on the sheer one
I'm with you June, that's the one I have on my side of the couch. It's my fav too. Thank you, I'm so happy you're checking out so many diys on here 💖💖💖 I greatly appreciate you watching 💖
Beautiful, I am partial to the gen one. I do like them both.
Hey Bonny, me too. That's the one I ended up putting on my side of the couch. Thank you so much. Glad you like this diy 💕
These are both very beautifully done. Please don't make us choose lol. Thank you for sharing! This was a fun diy to watch!
This is definitely my favorite out of all the diy’s you’ve done! You are amazing! God bless ❤️
Oh wow, thank you so much Vickie!!! Blessings to you sweet lady 💕
Both lamps are amazing but you're killing me Smalls using canvas since I paint! LoL. I'll make one for my Mother. She'll love it. You come up with these amazing creations. H&L
Lol!! My husband's mother painting and he said, "my momma would kick your butt if she seen you do that." Lol. Thank you Anita, so glad you like this and you're mom would love it 💕
Love love love
Hi Miranda, WOW. So gorgeous.I luv both lamps but the gem one has to be my favourite. I really luv the way you explain everything bit by bit and add tips too. When you had shown the on/off switch i seen the table lamp so im off to find that. Thank you for the inspiration and for sharing. Luv from across the pond. x
Creative Living. I was inspired on your wall unit. I made a side table using wooden hangers and a round mirror. I wish I could send it to you. Thank you thank you. Lydia Johnson from Chicago
Omg that's wonderful! Yes you can send it to my email
I would love to see it! I'm so glad you was inspired from one of my videos.

Wonderful ideal I personally like flat one and remember I'm a bling girl. Great DIY 👍🏻👍🏻❤💐🤜🤛
Another awesome job bama baby girl! I hope you heal quick my goodness what were you thinking? 😲 Very very nice 👍👌🌷♥️❤️ you need to think about moving down here in Florida come on we can do this🌴😎
Haha, I know it. I wasn't thinking lol. It has, it's actually 100% healed now. It took me a while to finish editing between my off days. Oh I would love love love love love to live in Florida.
@@CreativeLivingLifestyles if I could do it I know you could because I still cannot edit so I cannot throw any on UA-cam because of that so I just watch you 🌴🌴🌴😁😁😁😁😍🤣🙏🙏❤️🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴😎
Absolutely ❤️love this DIY !!!!
Omg you just made my year! 🤩I have been obsessing over these kind of lamp shelves but they’re pricey! I’m so glad you did this! Thank you for sharing! 💖💖💖
Me too girl!! I loved this design as soon as I saw these. I still have both of these lamps in my living room on each side of the couch and can't see ever replacing these lamps with something else. Having the shelves is just too neat. I'm so glad you like these!
Btw, I tried a glue made by Gorilla that is crazy strong. It's called construction adhesive. If I was redoing this I'd probably just use this stuff bc is insanely strong with maybe a few staples on the inside as reassurance.
They are gorgeous. I love the blinged out one 💜
Thank you Jody, I'm not at all surprised you like the bling one more lol. xo 💕 💕
Amazing diy
I love them both. If I had to choose it would be the one with the gems💎. I think I might try this and make it farmhouse somehow.(fingers crossed. Lol) I'll keep you posted.❤❤
Oh cool, yeah the original is a Farmhouse style. This was one I knew some of the farmhouse fans would love. I for sure wanna see pics if you do this one. Thanks so much Miss Monica 💕💕💕 PS my fingers are crossed, you got this ;)
Marandah,you did it again,lady,these are amazing and the light switch lamp plug is great. I love them both.
Thank you very much Karen! 💕 💕
These are both so pretty, I can't decide which is my favorite. I wanna make them both!
Lol omg you sound like me lol!!! I've changed my mind so many times. I ran outta gems. I guess it's a good thing bc I love the sheer one too.
Beautiful and so creative, I love them both. ❤
Both are very beautiful and functional!
♥️👌🏻
Thank you Yolanda 💕
Gorgeous!!!!! I'm going to try this and paint them black ❣❣
Thank you! Oh that will be pretty
A mouth opener😍😍
Oh my goodness!!! I just thankfully stumbled upon your channel. Your creativity is boundless. I love the happiness in your voice too. Many blessings 💙🙏🏻💙
Aw you're such a sweetheart! Thank you so very much Annalee. I'm thankful you stumble on my channel too. I'm so glad you enjoyed this project. Many Blessings to you and yours 💕 💕
How cute is this. These would look good on each side of your bed.Thank you for sharing!!
Girl you know I'm a bling girl! I like both but I really like thegems. Love it girl and love you!
Thanks so much girlfriend. I've got a weak spot for those gems. I've always wanted some like this too. My plan was to do both like that but I didn't have nowhere near enough. I didn't expect the sheer to be so pretty. I'm glad you like em both, love you too girlfriend!
TFS, I like both lamps, and would like to tinker around with some ideas. If I was to change anything, it'd be the hanging basket part. It's ok but managed to trip my O.C.D. with three legs on one side, and two on the other. Anyhow pretty lamps.
Lol, I feel you on the basket. Some things bother me like that too. The other one was two and two if that works better. Thank you so much cat sniffer. I'm glad you enjoyed this project.
Girl!!!! You worked your magic again love love love this. Thank you for sharing this. ❤👏🏽 love them both.
Thanks so much girlfriend.
Wow, I've been wanting something like this and BAM, you did it!!!!!! The bling for the living room and the other for my bedroom.
Hey Coco, awesome what great timing ;) Me too, lol. I'm glad this is something you've been wanting. It's well worth the effort, hope you make it. Thanks so much. 💕 💕
Awesome idea! Like them both.
