Creative Floor Lamp Ideas

Personalize your home with accessories you’ve made yourself such as, for example, a DIY floor lamp or a tripod lamp. They’re easy to make, useful and amongst the most popular types of home accessories. You could, of course, just buy a lamp. But why miss the opportunity of adding a personal touch to your home’s décor? Here are many ideas to choose from.

Hockey Stick Floor Lamp.
There are lots of things you can use for building a floor lamp. A hockey stick is one of them. Here’s what you have to do: buy a cheap and simple floor lamp and replace the rod with the hockey stick. You’ll have to measure it first and make it fit.

Rustic.
To make a rustic floor lamp you can use an old lantern. Wire the lantern and give it a makeover if you want. A fresh coat of spray paint should be enough. Then build the rest of the lamp. You can use leftover pieces of wood to make a a sturdy base

Branch.
Wooden floor lamps are particularly interesting because each one is unique. Here’s a simple idea: a floor lamp with a tree stump slice as a base and a branch as a rod. Mark where you want the rod to go, drill a hole and glue the pieces together. Then drill a hole through the branch to insert the copper pipe through

Combined with a bedside.
You can save space by combining two elements in one. This is both a floor lamp and a bedside table. Take a simple bedside table and drill a hole for the cord to go through. Fix the baluster to the tabletop with glue and then add the lampshade and the bulb

Old books.
Decorate an already existing floor lamp to make it look more interesting. An unusual idea can be to take bunch of books and drill holes through each of them. Then take apart the lamp and insert the books onto the rod. It will definitely be a conversation piece.
