The process of reusing old bottles to DIY a beautiful table lamp:
Step 1: Choose an old wine bottle as the base of the DIY table lamp. It is best to use a beautiful foreign wine bottle, so that the DIY table lamp will be more beautiful.
Step 2: Cut the old wall calendar into a trapezoid (as shown in the picture). As the lampshade material, the paper must have a certain thickness (you can use your favorite paper with or without patterns).
Step 3: Use iron wire to fix the lamp holder to the mouth of the wine bottle and tighten it; install the light bulb, and use a stapler or strong glue to connect and fix the cut calendar paper to make a lampshade.
Step 4: Connect the switch to the wire, plug in the power and see if the light bulb lights up (www.111diy.com).
Step 5: Add small stones, etc. into the bottle. It is not only beautiful, but also can increase the weight of the bottom of the lamp.
