Step 9Stopper
You've got to create some kind of stopper to hold the globe in place on the fixture.
The easiest thing we came up with was to drill a small hole in the little plastic thing that manages the cable on the Ikea lamp and use some fishing line to tie the plastic cable manager to the top of the globe.
You can also use some bailing wire that's been wrapped around the cord and then bent out into two little prongs to hold up the globe. This is the method that is shown in the video. There are probably many different ways to attach the globe to the fixture.
Once the globe is affixed to the fixture, it's ready to hang and light up your life!
