DIY Lamps, Lanterns and Lace: Let There Be Light

Dear Readers,

I've recently come across some gorgeous DIY lamps and lanterns, jars and tea-light votive makeovers. Most are easy to do and an absolute delight to look at. Hope you will like them and try them out for your self.

The hardest one in my opinion but also the prettiest is this lace doily spherical lamp, the tutorial can be found here.

This pendant doily lamp maybe a little less overwheming, instructions are similar to the one above.
