Hello guys, It's been awhile since my last blog and here I am again. I hope everybody is feeling better and safe. (lol)
I have had a hard time making this introduction about the project that I am going to share with you today. Allow me to share one of my outputs that I made in my class in Industrial Arts. It was a lampshade made out of coconut shell. Using coconut shell was my last option and it was the only available materials that I can use during that time.
Materials:
1 piece coconut shell
1/4 yards mint green, see through cloth remnants
1/2 bottle varnish (mahogany)
1 piece adhesives
1 piece sandpaper #400
1 piece small bulb
1 meter wire
1 piece electric switch
Procedure:
1.Prepare all the materials needed.
2.Look for a coconut shell and cut it into halves.
3.The upper half is used as the stand. Attached it to the other half by using adhesive. You can apply the varnish right after attaching or after making the whole project.
4.Make a hole at the bottom to where the light is to be attached.
5.Form a stand to where the lampshade canopy is to be placed by tying or by Putting an epoxy.
6.Form the canopy by making a ring. The canopy can be detached from the main frame.
7.To make the lampshade attractive make use of see through materials as cover.
8.Put and add some attractive accessories to make it more presentable.
The pictures are all mine however, I don't have a picture of the step-by-step process of the procedure presented.
That is all my friend, I hope you find this blog useful.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read my blog. See you soon.
