How to update the old lamp with your own hands. Plafones for chandeliers do it yourself: Original ideas and master classes on the decor

Decorative Cultures for Garden

Lighting is the most important component of the interior. It is from the lighting that the comfort of the comfort of our dwelling depends. The game of light and shadow allows you to beat the winning moments of the interior and take attention from unsuccessful moments. And also - lamps, lamps, chandeliers and lamps create that atmosphere that we call the "house." Make a dwelling only "your", personal, individual will help unique lamps and the best way - Make upgrade with your own hands. Homemade Plafones and lampshades are the horse, which will allocate your home from others.

Safety words

In the manufacture of lamps, lamps and chandeliers in industrial environments, the minimum distance from the "body" of the lamp to the materials is pre-performed. It depends on the distance from the power and thermal radiation of the lamp and on the type (flammability) of the material from which the ceiling / lamp shade is manufactured. At home, it is unlikely that someone will bother with such calculations. And in order not to create a dangerous situation, you should adhere to certain rules.

And in general, making a lamp and installing it, in the first few days, pay attention to whether there is a ceiling. Heated is considered any increase in temperature above. ambient. If the ceiling is felt like "warm", change the light bulb into less powerful. Check again. So as long as the homemade lampshade will not warm up.

Where to get a frame

If you want to remake the old lamp, the lamp, the brain, whose old lampshade has come into disrepair, you can simply use the existing foundation, having funned the old material. Before starting work, look good for the framework, if there is a rust somewhere or damaged coating, can it stand everything and paint again? At the same time, the color can be changed. If there are no old frames, you can buy an inexpensive lamp (in the store or on the flea market) and make the same operations with it. Not bad lampshades can be done from baskets for garbage. They are wire, there are plastic. The main thing is to find suitable in shape and size. Then you make a hole under the cartridge. Next - it's a decoration / trim, and here the sea options.

If this method is unavailable, you can make a lamp shade without a frame (there are such) or make a frame yourself. Material for making frame for lampshar do it yourself. It is: wire, wood (wooden or bamboo sticks, cut specially elements), plastic bottles.

How to make a frame for homemade label from wire

Wire for a lamp frame is needed aluminum or steel. With aluminum work easily, but it is easy. This is not very important when the lampshade is already exploited, but this fact must be taken into account during operation: you can spoil the form. On the other hand, such plasticity allows you to easily and simply make changes to the form. So the option is not bad. Aluminum wire can be "mined" from electrical cables. We will have to remove the protective shell and can be used.

Stall wire more elastic, so it retains the form well. It can be searched in the construction market. Work with her more. It is desirable that there were strong men's hands nearby.

In addition to the wire for work, powerful plugs and passage will need. The lamp shade usually consists of two rings and connecting their racks. From the size of the rings and shapes of the racks depends on the form of the future lampshar. Questions may arise by the number of racks and ways to fasten them. The number of racks depends on the size of the rings and how much "round" you want to make a lampshade. The more racks, the more "smoothly" the fabric will fall. So choose to you, but the optimal distance between the racks along the lower circle is about 5-6 cm.

Receptions for creating a wire label

Molding methods The stack to the rings of the lampshar depend on the thickness and type of wire, as well as from your tools you have. The easiest - to make a small hook on the end, then clamp it tightly. And so that the ring does not slide right-left, pre-wire in the place of attachment to treat sandpaper with large grain. This is an option for thick aluminum wire. If the wire is steel, with a diameter of 1.2-2 mm or more, the best way is. Wirestone can be cut and wind around the ring or also make a hook.

If you make hooks, wed up the wire, appearance It turns out not so ideal as factory frames. But this imperfection will be covered by the lampshade itself. If she worries you, find the tape suitable color (Typically pick up the color of the lampshar) and gently wrap the resulting frame. Will be much better. The ribbon can be labeled with PVA and, wet, tight, twice behind the turn, wrap the frame.

From wire mesh

If you can find a thin wire mesh, you can quickly make an almost perfect cylindrical plander for a flooring, a table lamp, a night light, a ceiling for installing a candle, etc. Total and it is necessary that cut off a piece of mesh of the desired length and width, roll into the ring and fasten the wires, wrapped them around the racks.

So that the grid does not straighten up, cutting off the piece, cut the long free ends from both sides. They will fasten the cylindrical shape. And the imperfection of the upper and lower rings can be masked with the ribbon of the desired color.

From five-liter plastic bottle

An interesting form of lampshade can turn out of a plastic bottle of large litter. There are bottles of 5-6 liters and even on 10. Here you can use them. From the tank, cut off the tops go to the bottom - depending on what you like more. In the cut part we make a ring under the cartridge. If the upper part is cut, the neck can be used for some cartridges. For those more diameter, it will have to cut.

Then cut out extra plastic, forming the rim and racks of the ceiling. To not be mistaken, you can pre-draw all lines with a marker. Cut will be easier. VCE elementary. Next we just decorate. And yes, cut plastic necessarily, otherwise there will be no warm air to go.

We make lampshades on the frame

Options for how to make the case of the lampshar sufficiently:


From tapes

The easiest I. fast way Transform an old lamp shade for a lamp or a table lamp - use tapes. Need a frame or lamp shade in the form of a cylinder. It can be "naked" or covered with cloth. If you use a "naked" frame, the light will break through the slots, which will create interesting light effects, but the lighting will be inhomogeneous. You are uncomfortable to read with such a light - this is an interior solution. If you need smooth lighting, first cover the frame to the cloth. It can be the same color that the tapes, on a couple of tones darker or lighter, can be contrasting. It all depends on your desire. And remember that the darker there will be a cloth, the smaller the light skips the lampshade.

Take the tape with a width of 1-2.5 cm. I fix it from the wrong side of the lampshar with the help of PVA glue, additionally fixing the pin. If we took a wire frame without fabric, fastened to the upper or lower line (you can sew your hands, you can use glue). Then we start wrapping the entire frame, from top to bottom, placing the ribbons close to each other, but without an adhesion.

Having finished the circle, we turn the ribbon to 90 °. Fix in this position (needle with a thread or plow glue, glue from the gun, fixing the temporarily pin, pressing the clothespin). Further ribbon we skip under the first ribbon, pull out, put on top of the second, then stretch down again, pull up through one tape. So, gradually, we create a weave, filling the entire lampshade.

Alternatively, you can skip two vertical tapes. But then it is necessary to ensure that each next row is shifted by one cross. Then it will turn out another type of weave. Such a lampshade is ideal for flooring, as it will go down the light, the dispersion through the walls will be small.

In this embodiment, the tapes may be the same, can - one color, but of different textures, may differ on a couple of tones or be contrasting. In a circle, the tape can be allowed solid, and it is possible - after a certain distance. If you find a wide ribbon and impose it with the overe, then there will be no horizontal at all. And if you use a braided or twisted cord (on the bottom photo on the right), we get a completely different type of lampshade. So only this technician finishing the lampshar gives a lot of options.

Briefly imagine ideas. There are many options for how non-standard ways to make standard frameworks for lampshades. The first method was already voiced: you can connect the case on the lampshade on the needles or crochet. Several options in the photo.

Not everyone can knit. It is easier to work with beads, especially if it is glued. You can decorate the old fabric using beads, sequins, beads of different shapes and sizes. Such a "new-old" lamp shade do it in a couple of hours. We pick up suitable decorations, scrub the fabric with PVA glue, stick decorations. To complete the image, you can collect suspensions from beads and beads that are attached to the lower line, but this is already painstaking work. Although the effect is interesting.

You can sew a new label of fabric. But it is not necessary to make it updated copy of the old. It should be included fantasy! If the lamp or floor lamp stand in the girl's room, the new case on the lampsur can be made in the form of a skirt. Select the style of the skirt yourself. It is interesting to look into the fold. With ruffles and without.

In the boy's room you can use old geographical map. They are on dense paper. If the paper is not sufficient enough, you first need to stick the card to the cardboard, and then from such a blank glue the lamp shade.

Original plaffers are obtained if the finished frame shakes the threads or ropes. Ropes can be natural. In this case, they are gray, brown beige. You can find fine synthetic colored cords. Of these, it will turn out more "fun" in the color of the product. It is even easier for the case with threads for knitting. They are thin, thick, textured, with a smoothly changing color. In general, mass options.

We take the frame and according to a certain scheme of its soaring. You can start with racks. Each rack with a pigtail (the length of the threads should be 3 times more than the height of the rack). When this work is over, start stretching the thread / rope between the racks. They will need to pass through the pigtails, so that with threads are more convenient to do it with the help of a needle, and the ropes can be turned on and so.

The second option - first empty the horizontally the entire frame, and then lay the rack. The pigtail will not succeed here, you just need to fasten the turns on the rack with a certain slope. This version performed is somewhat simpler, but the "pigtails" look more decoratively.

Homemade beams without frame

Many materials are tough enough to keep the shape on their own and, at the same time, they are enough plastic to make something interesting from them. There are a lot of such homemade lampshads. And almost all of them cost your attention. We only give a part here, the other part will go in the photo section (see below).

From knitted lace napkins

Crochet-knit napkinsome have many and lie in the "honeycomb", as it is a pity to throw out, and they do not know how. There is so interesting idea - Make from them lampshade for chandelier on the suspension. Besides napkins need a big balloon Or inflatable ball, glue for heavy wallpapers (vinyl, silk-screen printing, etc.), brush.

Machine glue according to the instructions, we wait until I fell. I inflate the ball or take the ball, hang. When the glue is ready, on some clean surface we lay the napkin, we wash it with glue, lay out on the ball.

It is necessary to lay out with such a condition that the center will remain in the center. One by one we glue the napkin. It is necessary to lay out so that the edges overlap a little. When all the napkins are laid, once again we wash them with glue and leave up to dry. When the glue is dry, blow the ball or ball (the ball can be pierced if not sorry) and take it out through the hole. That's all, lace abazhur is ready.

In some cases, there are problems with the way ready-made lampshade to hang on the cartridge. The problem is solved simply - take a transparent plastic bottle, cut off her neck, if necessary, expand the hole to the desired dimensions (so that it is tightly put on the cartridge), then cut off the plastic so that it turns out a ring of 5-7 cm wide. This ring is width And from the inside the ball is lining to the lampsuit.

Round rafones from threads

In almost the same technology, you can make round and semicircular stylish plaffones. Choose a fracture color. Their composition is absolutely unimportant - the color, thickness and texture is important. They can be shaggy, smooth, twisted, fond and thoroughly. The appearance depends on this. It is most convenient to work with cotton threads of medium thickness. They absorb glue well and then, after drying, hold the shape perfectly.

You still need a ball or a ball. It will be the basis of the lampshar, which sets the form. The size of the base is as desired. Threads need to glue, for this you will need PVA glue. It is transferred to the container, diluted with water in proportion 1: 1.

You can use another glue. It is important that it becomes transparent after drying. This is WB-29 TYTAN PROFESSIONAL and D2 glue for carpentry work. If you use some of these types of glue, read the instructions.

On the ball or bowl, draw a circle that will be slightly smaller than the lamp cartridge. On the opposite side, we draw a more circumference - it will be the bottom edge of the ceiling. Now everything is ready, we can proceed.

We wash the thread by glue and wake them on the ball in chaotic order. It is more convenient to do this if the glue is poured into the container - you can lower all the modes, and just pull the thread slowly. With glue in a tube, everything is not so comfortable: it is necessary to miss areas length up to meter, wind, wrap again. Time leaves much longer. This is if used not pva. But the products are obtained more rigid and do not sag, do not change the form over time, as it can happen to the nietary lampshades on PVA.

When winding threads on the ball, diligently go around drawn circles. If accidentally climbed to the "Forbidden territory", simply put the threads, forming a smooth (more or less smooth) edge. When the threads are completed or you decide that the density is enough, the process can be stopped. The edge of the thread is refueling between others. Everything. Further, the ball with wound threads once again we wash the glue (PVA can be poured) and leave to drying (at least 2 days). To do not ride the ball, we find a bowl or a saucepan and use it as a stand.

The last stage - blow the ball or ball. If the ball has nipple, press it with a thin wire, releasing air. Having embarrassed the ball. On this, everything can be traded inside the lamp and test the lampshade.

The technology is the same, but the appearance is very different ...

According to the technology described above, you can make not only round beams. Rectangular, triangular, trapezoidal. Choose the foundation that is easy to remove, wind the thread moistened in the glue, braid, even stick, newspaper tubes, etc. After drying, you delete the foundation and so, you made the lampshade with your own hands. A couple of examples in the photo below.

And you can also use sticks .... Only the ball also wrap the food film and use the PVA not glue, but a transparent joiner

Torster is a multifunctional lighting device. Properly selected lamp will make the room practical and individual. Unfortunately, floor lamps are obsolete and wear out very quickly, so the issue of emission or its further reconstruction arises.

The production of lampshar - an interesting and cognitive occupation, develops and attentiveness. Updated landscover with their own hands will definitely attract the attention of guests.

Cap for Torchara Can be made from different materials and items:

  • the cloth;
  • threads, lace;
  • dense paper;
  • glass;
  • buttons.

The list can be continued endlessly. Do not forget about the color scheme of the decor, since it depends on the saturation of lighting. The more denser the base of the lamp, the darker lighting. Such landslides are better to use in a sleeping room. You can decorate not only the lamp, but also its base.

The main thing in the creation of the lampshar do it yourself

At the beginning of work it is necessary select a type of fabric. It may be flax, silk, cotton, jeans and others. For a harmonious combination, it is desirable to pick up color gamut To the interior of the room. Prepare all materials that will be required for work:

  • the cloth,
  • glue that is able to quickly glue
  • paper for stencil
  • scissors,
  • pencil.

When everything is prepared and thought flashing option for frame, you can start work. The most simplified method is a hauncing with a new cloth surface of the former lampshar. No special skills required for this.

However, you can create a new, original lamp with your own hands. With the subsequent attachment on the base of the old lampshair. Consider some of them.

Master class on making lampshair do it yourself

Felter (butterflies)

Paper pattern apply to fetal tissue. Write with a pencil even outlines and cut out. On the Internet we find photos of butterflies. Observe them either print and cut it out. Obtained stencils put on the cloth and a pencil allocate contours.

It is advisable to make butterfly with butterflies and draw a chaotically on the fabric. With the help of scissors, cut out butterflies on the marked borders. The main point is not to the end. For example, only wings, which then raise and press in the outer side of the future cap.

We apply glue to the frame of the lamp. Gently glue the resulting workpiece. Everything, lampshade with adorable butterflies is ready.

Classical

Paper molds are transferred to the chosen matter, write the borders. The withdrawal of the tissue is sprayed with adhesive solution (you can apply the usual glue with a brush). Then slowly impose the prepared material on the fabric of the old floor lamp, smoothing in a circle, carefully press the edge. Excess fabric cutting off.

To give the lamp to the lack of type, it is necessary to handle the edges. Purchase or sew the tape, braid, fringe. Optionally, you can decorate buttons, appliqués.

Hooked

The original solution for the new floor lamp is a plafof associated with your own hands. Learn to knit with the help of a hook is completely simple. You will need two tangle any yarn and hook at number 3.

Let the diameter of the lamp 26, see the 52 loops on the hook in the chain, connecting into the ring. AND we begin to link the ranks according to the scheme:

All loops are collected using a hook, lampshade is ready. The associated lampshade quickly and easily dresses on the basis. We decorate various elements.

Openwork

An openwork differs from other types of lampshar visible to ease. It will also need glue, base and, of course, openwork napkins.

Wipes soak the glueAfter that, without waiting for drying, we glue the lampshade. Effective will look round lamp label. To do this, influence the ordinary ball and glue the openwork, leaving the place to screw the light bulb. As soon as the napkins dried, piercing the ball needle. Gently remove the remnants. It turns out a gentle, weightless lampshade.

Master class on knitting napkins with a hook can be found on the Internet. Using different schemes and hooks, we get openwork wipes of various ornaments and size.

Original, made of metal elements

Change the appearance of the flooring is not only known materials, but also with the help of various remedies. In this case, this is metal openwrites from tin jars. To make an original lampshade, they will need them a large number of (about 200).

Each element is disconnected from the container. On the top row of the rings of the frame wearing elements bent in half. The easiest way to do is using pliers. When the bent lids are dressed, we strongly press their ends with your fingers, making a row durable.

From the second row used nippers. Each lid is made a slot with one of the sides. Thus, with the help of a cut, we ride the covers (rings) of the upper row on it. Odja everything metal elements On the top row, compress for sealing the entire structure.

Further, we do the same manipulations with each subsequent next. The more rows are done, the definition will be visible texture of the future Torcecher. The number of rows depends on the height of the lampshade frame.

The last number is the most difficult in work. For a legend of even and aesthetic look, you will have to try. For this cover cut in half. On the half we will make a slot, with the help of it fasten the lower elements of the row. The other half is slightly sweep, we tray to the hoop of the lower part of the frame.

Such a lampshade reminds mail and look original in any room.

From plastic tary

It looks very unusual a lampshade made of plastic bottle. Required:

  • plastic container with a volume of 3-5 liters,
  • disposable spoons (plastic),
  • glue (heat melting),
  • cartridge for the lamp.

The ratio of volume (liter) to the number of spoons:

  • 5 liters - 170 spoons;
  • 3 liters - 120 spoons.

The form and size of the container affects the final variant of the lampshar. And the brightness of the lighting depends on the color. The neck of the bottle must be quite wide in order to insert the cartridge to the light bulb.

To begin with, carefully cut the bottom of the bottle, pre-placing the contour. With the help of bruises, plastic spoons divide into two parts. The oval part will be required.

Stages of work:

  1. Heat the thermal power with glue.
  2. We apply glue to our petals in four places.
  3. We glue to the bottle, starting on top. Petals stick the butt jack in a circle.
  4. We attach the petals of the subsequent rows so that the container is completely hidden.

After all the steps, in the lid, cut the hole for the cartridge. Abazhur ready. Such a lampshade will be interested in collecting both adults and children.

Decor elements with their own hands

Made with your own labels, you can decorate various small elements:

  • bows;
  • flags;
  • photos;
  • icons;
  • herbarium.

The classic decoration of the lamp is the roses created by their own hands. Roses are made of fabric. The material is cut on the strips. Start strips - the start point of the rose. We apply to her thermocons. Then gradually around this point we sweat (collect) the remaining cloth, gluing after certain distances. A more complex variant is stitching (if the glue has not been). With this simple method, you can make various compositions. Created colors decorate all or part of the lampshar. Beautiful look roses of several color shades.

The answer to the question of how to make a lampshade for lamp, is simple - this is the minimum skills and maximum fantasy. With the help of master classes, various complex ideas can be realized.

When a desire arises to change the situation in the apartment and add it some originality - start with the little things. Try to change the lampshade, and you will be surprised by the transformation of your family nest.

And if it is possible to find the original model, distinguished from the analogues, then the changes are impressive not only you, but also your guests.

True, unique lampshairs are worthy of decent money, because uniform works of eminent masters for a penny will not acquire.

But no one bothers you to independently create your own unique masterpiece from cheap, and sometimes even thrust materials that will look much better presented in the sample store.

All you need these are simple materials, a bit of patience and flight of fantasy, and we will tell how to make lampshade with their own hands.

Materials

Create a masterpiece can be from all that you have at hand: fabric, paper, thread, twine, wire, plastic bottle, beads or beads.

In general, absolutely everything is suitable, even what you usually send to the trash can.

Do not believe? Just watch the photo of the lampshar.

Frame

If you have a frame from an old lampshar, then it's just wonderful.

However, you should not be upset if it did not find it, because you can create a frame of yourself from ordinary wire.

Copper, aluminum, steel - all that can be combined to merge into a single design.

The metal frame of the classical lampshar consists of three rings and six jumpers between them. A small ring is a holder that three jumpers connects with a ring of larger diameter.

The same, in turn, is connected by jumpers with the last ring. The following photos will help you with the design.

From fabric

When there is a framework for lampshar in stock, the easiest way to create your masterpiece is to wrap the base with the cloth. To do this, you will need:

  • paper (newspaper);
  • scissors;
  • the cloth;
  • chalk or pencil;
  • threads.

Wrap the frame of the newspaper in such a way as to form a milestone out of it. Then, transfer the resulting form to the cloth with a chalk, adding 1 cm on the seam on each side.

Make a pattern, chop the edges and rub the sides, forming a case for the basis of the future lampshar. The upper and lower edge of the "cover" is bend in such a way as to close the frame rings and fix the seam.

Note!

Voila, your lampshade for lamp is almost ready. It remains to add several raisins to your taste, giving him uniqueness.

From thread

How to make lampshade when there is no frame? As easy as pie.

Take the balloon without drawings, glue, thread, marker and start to create.

First you need to inflate the ball and celebrate the upper and lower boundaries of your future masterpiece on it. Then take the threads and wind the ball, trying not to speak for marked contours.

On each layer of threads, apply glue, diluted with water 1: 1. When the thickness of the wound thread will satisfy you, lock the cropped edge and hang the ball to dry. After an hour 3-4, the threads are dried. Then pierce the ball and gently disconnect it from the walls of the finished lampshar.

Additional charm, abjection from threads can give woven between the layers of the threads and flower petals.

Note!

It also looks originally a bowl, decorated with sparkling beads. In general, see and inspire.

From paper

Conventional sheets of office paper, glossy magazines, cheap newspaper, unnecessary book or ordinary notebook, paper towel or napkin - all future lampshades.

It does not matter there is a frame or not, the main thing is that there were scissors, glue and paper. A thousand and one version of the execution of such lampsures can be described with the words "renounce and shoot".

The main thing is not to forget a few simple rules:

  • paper lamp lamps are safer to use together with economy bulbs that are heated significantly less incandescent lamps;
  • the diameter of the lamp lamp should be large so that the paper is unnecessarily heated;
  • for light premises, you can make a lamp shade from thick paper, but for dark it is necessary fine, well-transmitting light;
  • be careful with the color. For example, red or yellow paper will add a heat, green and blue room - cold.

Well, that's all. Check out new ideas, arrow with appliant means and forward, to light changes that carry warm and comfort in your home.

Note!

Photo of lampshar do it yourself

A lamp lamp can be made from almost any material. The finished framework will significantly simplify the work, but if it is not - it does not matter.

For the manufacture of the frame will be required:

  • wire with a thickness of 4 mm and 1 mm;
  • pliers;
  • hoven for metal;
  • cartridge for lamp with wire;
  • nippers;
  • glue.

To begin with, we define what sizes will be a framework. Usually it consists of two rings (large and smaller in diameter). For the product of the cylindrical shape use two rings of the same value.

Make rings simply - bend from wire two circles of a certain size. The location of the circle is winding fine aluminum wire and applied glue on the surface. For the manufacture of complex design, not two, but several circles.

Now proceed to the creation of "ribs" for lampshar. They are also made of wire: Freak to the circles, the places of compounds are wrapped with wire and sample.

The next step is to fix the lamp cartridge in the frame. We make a loop from thick wire and wind the cartridge. Tails cling to the upper circle of the frame.

This is not a difficult way you can independently make a frame for lamp lamp lamp.
