We had a completely stupid mansman bachelor sticks. The point is not even as he looked, but that he was absolutely not functional, but I would like at least at least the minimum of the functionality, at least just to be light.
And I decided to remake it - weave the lampshade of beads.
I propose to get acquainted with my updated turntable
(if something is not a masterpiece at all, but at least it works because it is necessary to work to work for lighting)
So, the lamp originally looked like this:
These were some synthetic threads stretched on the cylindrical basis, the vulgar plastic pendants from the "natural grooming", which I tried it over the year before I did it. It was very dark and in the sense of lighting completely impractical.
At one time, similar lighting devices (ceiling lamps, sconces, floor lamps, table lamps and TPs) were very popular in the nipedes, and succumbed to the general tendency of my husband in his time acquired.
Fortunately cut off the thread easily and simply, so I paired quick movements all this cut off.
By this point, I was already purchased by a kilogram of Czech transparent beads with rainbow spraying. I bought a fishing line. For weaving, I chose the monastery grid, it does not have large ride on one side, with another slightly sparse, i.e. And the density will be, and not too much bead consumption, which means not too much weight (do not forget that the weight of beads in a large amount can be very significant - the glass is).
And the work went:
A practically ready-made cover (I didn't yet know that I would have to take it a little bit).
I will not tell all the details of the creation (who is interested - they are in my blog).
And here is the flooring ready!
Now in that area of the living room, where we do not have a chandelier with light enough in order not to fall on the coffee table and do not surrender the tails to our cats (it is not planned to read when it is planned).
Weaving time - about three months to 2-3 hours in the evenings.
The weight of the finished bead "stocking" - 742 gr.
Materials:
Fishing Line Maxximus Ø18, length 300 m, Loading of 2 kg
Czech beads Preciosa, 9
Yes, we have curves and not smooth walls :))) Do not pay attention!
