Next time you are in a dollar store, stock up on bamboo kabob skewers! I love the dice lamps! If I were to recreate them, that's what I would use. I've used them for everything from floral picks to armature for masks and sculpture. You can cut them apart with a craft knife or heavy duty scissors, they take everything from paint and paper to polymer clay extremely well. They are the kind of thing you just keep finding more things to do with. Remember popsicle sticks from summer camp? That vibe, but pretending to be grown-up about it.

Oh my gosh these both came out so cute! Gus's mind... That tulip lamp is an another level and it's literally just a beautifully spray painted plastic bottle I cannot get over it! And the chopsticks were such an amazing idea, too! I need the polymer clay lamp asap, I need more ideas to steal lmao

When you first said you had poop in your house, I thought Kakashi got sick my doggo got a virus in 2023. SOrry bout your sewage debacle, same thing happened to friends of ours. Love the lamps just in time for Earth day showing how to upcycle what would normally go in the trash.

"Oh! To sexy!" needs to be a tik tok sound 😂 love your crafting videos ❤ also when you asked for food my daughter offered you an apple slice 😊

Fellow stay here! I think you bias either Changbin or Lee Know, or both who knows! I bias Chan, but love all the boys either way ❤❤

I feel like you might stan someone lovingly dorky like Bang Chan. I’m obsessed with lamps and scope out the thrift stores but I haven’t found anything amazing yet. During the pandemic I bought a mcm calla lily lamp on eBay that was so expensive but worth it.

you pick the best (I assume royalty-free) music, it's so cozy 😭 it fits the vibe of your videos so well. in this video especially the songs were so otherworldly and comforting, like the way video game music can make you feel

The tulip lamp is SO pleasing, you did a fantastic job

Betrayal of the century 😞

I’ve seen a lot of people recreate the tulip lamps with flattened leaves made out of Arizona cans that were spray painted. I think if you ever try again that can be an option, it’s also safer with the heat of the light bulb than plastic:)

I’m a huge Han stan! He’s def my ult bias, I could see you being a Felix bias! 🫶🏻

The lamps turned out super cute. However, I am definitely mentally peeling that price sticker remnant off of that one lamp base because Aaaaahhh! ;)

AAAAAAA I LOVE BECKY CHAMBERS!!!!! You should totally read the long way to a small, angry planet and it's sequels tooo!!!!

Agree so hard on not wanting the look of five minute trash crafts. Always drove me nuts the way upcyclers and the eco chic crowd try to pass off rather untransformed garbage as a cute lamp or whatever.

The sticks are perfect for baking to, when you need to see if something is done🫣

I’m in love with the flower lights. They are so beautiful!

using the soda bottle was such a good idea!! when i was younger my grandma used to have us make plastic hanging fish out of 2 liters! you using that just unlocked a memory i forgot i had 😊

Loved this! So *stinking* cute 😂😂😂 I had a sewer situation last summer. It was a nightmare. I’m glad yours resolved quickly.

Love that you do multiple projects to make sure one goes through! Such a good idea! Also I already said on instagram, but I’m so glad your dirty water situation was fixed! I hate that it happened at all 😭 thanks for making fun videos for us.

Loving the Dice lampshades! They really look great with those Mid-Century lamps.

I love both lamp styles! I hope you'll do the polymer clay version as well.

Go Kathleen, Goooo!!!!

I enjoy getting to see your creative problem solving and persistence!! The lamps ended up so cute, and you gave that lamp and those chopsticks new life. Truly so inspiring.

You are awesome thank you for existing and sharing your existence 💞🌞

I love watching you do these projects ❤

Oh I am so going to try recreating that tulip lamp!!! Thank you for the inspiration!!!!

Love this so much! I might have to make some lampshades and flower lights in the near future. Love.your videos and your energy ❤

Omg, I have a lamp I wanted to donate, that has the perfect shape for this tulip lamp! I'll just have to figure out a different Material for the lampshade, since this one has a halogen bulb that gets really hot. Your lamps turned out super cute!

such a fun video as usual :) would love to see the polymer clay one come to life !!!

Now I’m inspired to customize these generic floor lamps that have been uglying up my living room

I used to be an Art Mom for Elementary. We did flower art out of pop bottles. I shaped it with a heat gun and they painted. We auctioned them off at the annual Corks-n-Caps fundraiser. Mixed Media on large canvas…big hit. 🌈🌈🦋🦋

I am always here for a vintage lighting anything. Recently I was hunting for a glass “spaghetti shade “ to go into a lamp base I had and got the idea to make one instead using this jelly bracelet lacing type stuff and resin and a balloon to shape it on. It worked out ok but I think a second go will be the trick. Lighting upcycles.. and upcycles and non clothing thrift flips in general, yes please!

my fellow stay!!! your bias definitely is felix, i’d be shocked if not. i’m a changbin/bangchan bias hehe. i’m so excited to see this tulip lamp diyed so easily!! gonna have to yoink it for myself.
