Craft's and How-To's 3/8

Hello and welcome to Craft's and How-To's! First off I would like to say we are very sorry this post is late. :( (We normally post it at 7:30 and it is like 3:30) Today Autumn and I (Skylar) are going to show you how to make a Floor Lamp!

What You Will Need:

Duck Tape

Hot Glue/Gun

Scissors

Cardboard (Cereal Box)

Plastic Cup

Wooden Rod 18 inches tall

Yellow Pompom (optional)

 

Cut the cardboard 5" by 11".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wrap the cardboard around to form a cone. Glue.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Trim so the edge is flat. Lay aside.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Take the plastic cup and punch a hole in the top with the scissors. Be Careful!!!

 

 

 

 

 

Insert the stick.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And Glue. Set Aside.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Take the cone and start sticking duck tape on the outside.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Continue all the way around, till it looks like this.

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you would like glue a yellow pom pom inside the cone for a light. Set aside.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now take stick and cup and cover it in ducktape. Leave the top open.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now cover the cup. Now you have your base of the lamp.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Take the cone and poke a hole in the end.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stick on the base like this.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And Duck Tape.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now you may decorate it however you like. And your done!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is the lamp next to a doll.

 

 

 

 

We hope you enjoyed this post! See you next week!
