Cigar Box Lamp

Mayor · 03-23-2010, 11:21 AM

Not sure if this should go in the General Discussion or here? It's kind of an accessory.
I made this recently from some boxes. Glued the boxes together and got the wiring and shade from lowes. I was going to give it away but I think I can make some better ones. It lights the "bar" in the garage. Come on over for a smoke and a cold one.

Looks nice, I have enough boxes now to make one of these, that might be my next project.

That looks pretty badass but I could see some room for improvement. Maybe a different shade or doing a stronger contrast in size by using small and large boxes together. You could also put some boxes vertically.

Cool!

That is pretty cool looking. Nice job!

Awesome idea!!! I just put my crayons in my old boxes.

That's cool! It's even something that *I* could make. Unfortnately, I have gotten rid of nearly all my cigar boxes... (most went to a good cause: kindergarten and first grade classes for craft work)

Looks great, I would also like to see some more pictures of the table covered in cigar bands.

Nice job. I've been thinking about this for years, doing a floor lamp though. Maybe I'll just make a set of bedroom furniture instead.

Never thought about that before, a great idea I may just have to look into. Maybe my Tat Drac box vertically at the top.
