DIY hanging lantern

Take a simple Ikea lamp and give it a glam upgrade with this DIY from design duo, Colin and Justin!

 Materials: 

Sinnerlig bamboo Pendant lamp (Ikea)
Sättra Decoration for cord set, set of 5 (Ikea)
plastic beads
Coloured spray paint
Coloured card
double sided tape
beads
bead stringing wire
feathers

Instructions:

  1. Cut out two strips of coloured card wide enough to wrap around the top and base of the lantern.  Secure in place with double sided tape.
  2. Cut out lengths of bead wire.  Tie a large feather onto the bottom of each and then thread beads and additional feathers to create ‘dream catcher’ trails.  Tie each in place along the bottom of the lantern.
  3. Spray paint the Ikea cord beads with Rustoleum in red, green, blue and yellow.  Thread each bead onto the cord and reattach the electric fixing.
