Lamps from branches with their own hands
Nature creates beautiful forms, all that remains for us isjust to see and preserve this perfection. Surely you have at least once noticed the unusual shape of some branch or snag. Their beauty can be used in interior decor not only as an ornament, but also as a completely functional element. Many ideas for the home using wood have been embodied by designers and craftsmen in order to make stylish lamps from branches with their own hands.
Almost any lamp can be made from a branchdo it yourself, you will need simple tools and skill. But working with wood will bring you pleasure, it is a responsive and warm material. You can easily find bizarre tree branches in the forest or park, already dried out. Use such a branch as a base for the lamp. You should not take completely rotten wood, the base should withstand the weight of the lampshades and last a long time.
Depending on the length, diameter and shape of the branchyou can make a ceiling, floor or table lamp. For floor lamps from branches, you need to make a reliable leg, for example, pour cement mortar into some container or formwork, where you insert a tree branch. Then remove the formwork and leave the bare cement or leave it in a container (large ceramic pot, bucket, flowerpot).
Once the base of the lamp is ready, attach it toa cord with a socket and a light bulb on the branch. The cord can be simply wound around the branch or passed through metal corners attached to the tree. Vintage lampshades, old lampshades or just bare light bulbs will look equally interesting and stylish with the branch.
Ecological lamps made from branches harmoniouslywill fit into almost any interior, the main thing to remember is that everything needs to be in moderation. You shouldn't literally clutter up the space with decorative knots, snags and branches.
