The movement of recycling is increasingly widespread in design, we can find countless projects and very original and practical products. And I would like to highlight a field in which real virguerias have been achieved, the lights. More than designers, I'm going to call them artists, because the results obtained from everyday objects are incredible and do not leave anyone indifferent, in fact there are already luminaires that are not found in stores, but are exhibited in exhibitions like authentic works of art, which is what they are.
I want to show you not only these collector's pieces, but also lamps that only require a burst of creativity and dedicate some of your time to making crafts, which especially the children will love. Find the box of buttons abandoned at home and link them together, we only need a metal structure and choose the colors according to the touch that we like, I have to say that I love the lamp in the image in a vintage style raw and white tone.
Start reserving the plastic bottles you use, we will preferably keep those that are the same size, such as water bottles, but since it is about recycling we will try not to discard any. We are interested in the part of the bottom of the bottle and we will wait to have enough depending on the size we want to obtain, then we will join them with fishing line until we get the shape we like. To me, the one that I show you in the shape of a tear, seems more original than the round ones that can be seen more.
And for the followers hardcore skateboarders, that more than recycling the boards, is that you cannot and do not want to get rid of them because they are your collector's pieces, I offer you an alternative to use some of the thousands of boards that they keep without knowing very well what for. Now they can transform them into lamps that will make them smile every time they turn it on.
I encourage you to activate that creative side that we all carry inside, you can start with simple lamps, and for those who feel strongly about it, I suggest you take a look on the net to get ideas, he assures you that once you get excited with one, it will be a non-stop, you will always find a corner, either at home or at a friend, where will that lamp you have in mind go perfect.
