    The wire rack lamp could be cool in a kitchen. You can hang kitchen utensils from it, like spatulas, ladels, etc. That way it serves an extra purpose and it's an ever changing design, as you'll never put the utensils back exactly the same.
    During Christmas time you can hang decorations on it or Christmas cards you receive from friends and family. Many fun options really!

    This is a true tutorial. I’ve been crafting forever i am 70. I started at my grandmas knee. I watched this video and learned three things I didn’t know. 1.Mini meter saw
    2.Paper machete using cardboard( i love paper machete) i use newspaper and it’s messier than cardboard sooo
    3.Attaching wire baskets at seams with dowels (genius). That lamp can be embellished to be any kind of hanging light or chandelier with bling and more bling.
    I really like that hanging light. Dude you are the king for today in crafting. The negative comments are just haters doing what haters do. Your work is very smart thanks for sharing ❤❤❤ i will be subscribing

  • @christinemcwilliams9842
    @christinemcwilliams9842 Місяць тому

    If you wanted to make your lamp look more aged you could take a complimentary color, dip your brush, then after scraping ad much paint off on the side of your paint can, then take a gently slide it along the surface of your lamp. What this does is hit all the higher points of the surface giving an old world affect.
    The trays you bought gave me an idea - I live out in the country and I grow pineapples from the tops of pineapples I bought. It does take time before they bear fruit, but when they do the armadillo or the possums eat the fruit. But using your idea of the lamp shade I could use it to make a protective barrier around the plant that is producing fruit. Thanks for the idea.

I would probably decorate it a little more cause thats how i do. But he put about $20 in it not counting his time. I never heard of a professional crafter. But i guess if you get paid for it…But then i guess you are a designer. But im a crafter who makes stuff for fun and enjoyments. Folks ask me how much i want for it. i say what do you want to pay. I usually just charge for the materials OR i give it away. I hate charging for something i love doing and would do no matter what. 🤷🏾‍♀️🎨👩🏾‍🎨💃🏽
