Making a simple lampshade from plastic bottles
First of all, take a transparent bottle and cut off its bottom and neck with a knife. This will be the frame of the entire lampshade.
The entire design will be two-color. To do this, take two other bottles of different colors and cut them on the fly with scissors. You can do it manually, or you can use a simple device - https://enn.washerhouse.com/4297-nozh-dlya-narezki-lenty-iz-plastikovyh-butylok.html
First we wrap the transparent frame scattered with opaque matte tape.
We fix the ends with tape so that nothing unwinds.
Next, we wrap it with brown tape, also scattered.
And we also fix the edges with tape.
That's all. Our wonderful lampshade is ready. We put it on the lamp. There is no need to attach anything special, everything is held on its own on the lamp socket.
It shines beautifully and creates a mysterious effect. Doesn't put pressure on the eyes.
This lampshade cannot use an incandescent lamp, only energy-saving fluorescent or LED.
When making your own lamp, it is not necessary to follow this color scheme. You can completely take not a transparent bottle for the frame, but, say, a green one.... It will also turn out very cool.
