The Popsicle Lamp

Well, this is my entry to the Let It Glow Contest. And since, this is just my second instructable, I can say that I am very proud of my idea for this one. This lamp definitely suits a zen-inspired room, a rustic dining table, an office - almost anywhere! You can even vary this design if you want - hang it on the wall or the ceiling, or just let it lie like that on the floor.

Meh, and since I live in the other side of the globe (Philippines), I'll be very glad if ever I get an award (a little robo-shirt is too much!)

[ Before I joined The Instructables, I taught myself how to contribute ideas that will only require a little effort on gluing, assembling, or finding materials for an instructable, of course while considering still its design, usefulness, and practicality.]

Step 1 The Materials

The materials are very cheap, really. You can actually find these stuff somewhere in your house. If ever you don't have some of the items listed, you can take a walk on your favorite hardware/craft shop and buy those. But since I live in a different country, I cannot give you the prices of each.

1. Lots of popsicle sticks (craftshops anyone?)
2. Elmer's Glue All
3. Screw/Screwdriver (optional)
4. A plug with a wire (switch is optional)
5. Receptacle
6. Warmlight bulb

This is very cool. you could also use LEDs and hook it up to your USB port.

I actually am thinking of some BLEDs, but It's school time here, so I can't go to my fave shop to purchase some of my LEDs. Oh, college life..

I gave your Instructable 4 stars, but only 3 showed up.

That's Ok. XD Just wait for my other ideas. I have a bunch of them in my mind right now.

I look forward to see them. =)
