Floor lamp

Do you want to create a romantic atmosphere? Or cozy and warm? Or maybe fun and festive? This floor lamp will definitely help you.

Its advantages:
  • - Soft light that does not hurt the eyes.
  • - Low power consumption.
  • - You can turn the lamp on and off, control color and brightness from the remote control.
  • - Contemporary style that will fit anywhere.
  • - In addition to control and brightness, there is a smooth color changing mode and a dynamic switching mode, fast and slow.

In general, not a lamp, but a find!

The heart of the lamp is a Chinese garland with a controller and remote control. Plus the power supply that comes with the kit.

Quite inexpensive, bought it here - Aliexpress

If you have big budget problems, then you can take a simple white LED strip and power it from a power supply.

Other materials:

The rest of the materials that I used to make the lamp are not in short supply and are available at any hardware store.

1. Wooden corners 4 pieces - anyone who has trimmed with clapboard will understand what we are talking about, if not, ask the seller.

2. Wooden slats 4 pieces - there should be no questions here.

3.Two types of fabric: 1) transparent with a pattern, for effect. The type of organza that curtains are made from. 2) Denser, for dispersion, fabric such as chintz. I’ll admit right away – I’m a complete zero in fabrics and sewing. I just went to a sewing store and chose what I wanted to look like... I don’t remember exactly what it was called.

Of course, you can limit yourself to one dense one, but I just decided to stand out.

4. Plastic corners 3 pieces - any construction material.

5. Small nails.

Making a lamp

We collect all the materials and move on. I ordered an LED strip from China and while it was on its way, I started making the frame of the lamp and cutting fabrics around the frame.

The first thing you need to do is decide on the size. I took it to a height of one and a half meters. Taking this into account, I saw off 4 wooden corners. The main load-bearing parts of the lamp are ready.

Now we decide on the width - I took 30 cm. We begin to nail together with small nails. We do everything carefully so that nothing cracks. If it suddenly cracks, take PVA glue and glue it together.

One side is ready. We stuff corners onto it, sawn to the width minus the thickness of the sides.

Everything needs to be done proportionally. Everything must first be marked with a simple pencil. Don't forget about the legs of the lamp.

We assemble the frame - everything is ready. The biggest job is done. This is what ended up happening.

Now take the LED strip and glue it to the corners.

The height of the lamp is 1.5 meters. I took the tape 3 meters, that is, it goes along one corner and diagonally in another. If you want more brightness, take enough tape to cover all 4 corners.

LED strip adheres very well to wood.

Now we alternately wrap it in layers of fabric. First one, then the second.For fixation we use a furniture stapler. We cut off all protruding parts. All this is done very simply and quickly.

Next we take the plastic corners. Choose the color you like - there is a wide choice now. I thought a dark corner would harmonize well with the white color of the lamp and took it.

We cut the corners and glue the top and bottom first. Then we cut the corner lengthwise and glue the sides with strips.

Well, at the end we glue the corners onto the corners of the lamp. The adhesive can be ceiling tile adhesive or liquid nail adhesive.

That's it, let's check. Oh yes: the controller is fixed at the bottom, the infrared remote sensor is also located at the bottom.

The thing is simply amazing! It shines brightly, beautifully and consumes very little electricity.

I am very pleased with this lamp. I just love him!

The function of smooth color change perfectly calms the nerves after a hard day at work.

Make the same lamp and enjoy! All the best.
