Make a bohemian chic table lamp using Ikea Arstid table lamp

 The Ikea Arstid table lamp has a classic feel to it, but can start looking "tired" after a while. Check out my refresh of this classic piece into a bohemian table wonder.

Step 1 Take the lampshade off

This should not be too difficult, unless someone else actually fixed up the lamp for you, but I think that's highly unlikely, otherwise you probably won't be here.At the top of the lamp, there's a securing screw that you need to turn to unscrew the cap that holds down the lampshade.You can do this project with the Arstid floor lamp (as in the picture) as well, but the way to remove the shade is slightly different. You need to unscrew the bulb, then unscrew the securing O-ring, before the shade can be removed.
