Tripod Lamp
Instead of buying that pricey trendy TRIPOD lamp, create your own. Save yourself hundreds of dollars! Make it exactly the way you want it. Pick the color you like and coordinate it with a great lamp shade. Since you are saving so much money on your personal lamp, go ahead and splurge on the lamp shade. It will add that designer touch!
Use conduit for the tripod legs. Drill a hole near bottom & top of one conduit for the electrical cord to run through. Use a fine grit sandpaper to rub the smooth oily feel off of the conduit. Spray paint it the color of your choice. Run electrical cord through conduit. Drill three holes through a round wood disc approximately 1 1/2" thick. Drill screws through side of wood disc and through the conduit to hold it in place. Use lamp shade kit to add to top. Add rubber footings to bottom of conduit legs, add your bulb and lamp shade. It really is that easy and looks like it stepped right out of a magazine!
I LOVE my tripod lamp! I sit in my cozy chair, grab a book to read and turn on my tripod lamp. ~Yvonne
