DIY jute pendant light for dining room

[@aprilhumen1229]

I’m so doing this for an outdoor light above my dining table under a tree. Figured I could protect it from the elements by wrapping it in a plastic when not in use. Ty for this!

[@juliakonya7266]

You could use a synthetic cord which also helps protect it from the elements. I have done that with outdoor macrame pieces. Good luck!

[@aprilhumen1229]

@@juliakonya7266 great idea!

Be proud that was a ton of work!!! Very nice.

[@juliakonya7266]

Thank you! It does feel good making things

[@scraphreek]

This is absolutely stunning. thank you for the tutorial. Now I know why these store bought are so expensive. Thats a ton of work.

[@juliakonya7266]

Thank you! And yes, it's definitely a ton of work ;)

[@antongrad]

Omg! 😮 you’re a pro! Best diy lamp shade! Beautiful! I happen to have a lot of naturally died Mexican wool yarn. I’ll do mine with it. Thank you very much!

[@juliakonya7266]

Oh thanks so much! And good luck with your lamp shade.

[@davidronning6784]

Really incredible quality!

[@Kristenoyinbo]

This light is just BEAUTIFUL! Well done! Shops here in Australia charge $300 plus for this. I want to make mine soon ox

[@juliakonya7266]

Thanks Kristen and good luck!

Exelente trabajo 🎉 podrias decirme que material es ese que se puede soldar con cautin

[@yunggolem4687]

It's a cool build & looks great. Only thing I'd suggest is upgrading to brazing over soldering. I'm 100% certain that will be the failure point if this ever receives a decent impact or even gets a bit too hot from an incandescent bulb plus a high ambient temp. Wouldn't want all your hard work to be easily ruined.

Literally saved hundreds of dollars love it!!

Looks beautiful 😍

thank you

[@morganpraxhome562]

I am so impressed! I've tried to make pendant lights before but I couldn't figure out what to use as the base that would be big enough. I never thought to use thrifted lamp shades! Mind blown! 🤯 You are a genius!

[@juliakonya7266]

Thank you Morgan. I wish the metal frame cages were a bit easier to find ;)

[@oldladytoofast]

@@juliakonya7266 can you solder coat hanger wire? If so the possibilities using newer syle lamp shades would be great. I was always chicken to try soldering. You have inspired me to try!!

[@juliakonya7266]

@@oldladytoofast I'm a soldering newbie so I'm not sure about coat hangers. Sorry

[@oldladytoofast]

@@juliakonya7266 I'll def let you know what I find out. It sure could be a great source of material to lengthen or make shades.

[@oldladytoofast]

I watched a YT video where the creator used a bic lighter to solder coat hangers because he didnt have a solder iron. Definitely going to try it with hangers

[@kristenfromOZ]

Looks incredible

[@juliakonya7266]

thank you

[@WCarey-nz7lx]

That's really beautiful and would have cost probably $100 to buy, awesome!

[@juliakonya7266]

Thank you

[@deepak2268]

Beautiful ❤

[@Equestrian81]

This is beautiful 😍 May I ask what thickness of jute twine you used? In the UK we get anything from 1mm (extra fine) to 4mm+. It’s believe standard is 2mm but yours looks that bit finer… thanks in advance 🙏🏻

[@juliakonya7266]

Thanks! It's the exact one that I linked to in the description from Amazon which says it's 2.32mm
