Bright Ideas for Unique Lighting

The best light fixtures are usually those that are custom, unique & even outside of the box. How do you transform something into a light fixture? A drill and light accessories from the hardware store and even you can create a treasured light fixture.

I found an antique wood planer & pair of vintage canisters at a local vintage shop to transform into light fixtures. Manuel drilled a hole into the wood planer and fashioned a light socket, wire & plug together to create a truly custom light sconce. The canisters we turned into table lamps. Manuel drilled a hole in the back toward the bottom and we bought a table lamp lighting kit that was quite easy to assemble. The results were beautiful!
