Designers’ forecasts for this year’s home trends have already been released, and many of them have said that updated lighting fixtures are a must-have in their decorating toolbox. However, anyone who has tried to purchase lighting outside of the usual boring paper shade and metal base knows that updated lighting can be a drain on the wallet. Did you know that DIY lamps are inexpensive and easy even for a beginner? Here are some creative DIY lamp projects that will help you keep up with trends and your bank account.

This bohemian style pendant lamp looks complicated, but it’s a pretty simple craft and woodworking project from ‘Jen Woodhouse’. She does a great job of walking you through step by step with clear photos and instructions. You could save hundreds by making this light instead of buying it!

Boobs Light Makeover

Do you have ugly lights on your boobs? Find out how ‘The DIY Mommy’ used spray paint, macrame yarn, and wooden beads to give an old-fashioned accessory another bohemian look.

DIY Barn Beam Light Fixture

If you really want to impress, check out the tutorial for this DIY barn beam lamp on ‘Two Feet First’. What can we say other than amazing? I need this, immediately. This would look great in both a modern and rustic home!

DIY String Globe Light

This globe-shaped string of lights is not a new project, they have been floating around the blogosphere for a while now. But we like how BHG doesn’t overthink it and uses it as a pendant light instead of having to replace an overhead light and wire it into the electrical system. All you need is some rope, fabric reinforcement, a balloon, and a hanging light kit from Ikea or your hardware store.
