A beautiful and bright pineapple lampshade will decorate your home or the home of your friends, remind you of a warm summer even in the most severe frost and will raise the worst mood. And most importantly, it will be made by hand.
It is necessary
Plastic bottle, disposable spoons of yellow or white, painted with yellow paint, green thin plastic, glue moment or thermo gun, scissors
Instructions
Step 1
Cut off the neck and bottom of the plastic bottle.
Step 2
Cut off the handles of disposable spoons, we will not need them. The spoons themselves (if yours are white) paint with yellow acrylic paint.
Step 3
Start gluing the spoons to the very bottom of the bottle (where the bottom was). The rounded part should point downwards. All spoons are tightly packed, but do not obscure each other. Having glued the first row of spoons, we begin to glue the second one, which will overlap the first by exactly half. We glue on the principle of shingles - i.e. the spoon in the second row is positioned between the two spoons in the first row. We continue to glue to the very top.
Step 4
Cut out the tops of our pineapple from green plastic. The first detail resembles a multi-pointed star with a hole in the middle. The hole is the same size as the neck of the bottle. We glue this part to the top of the bottle, aligning the holes.
Step 5
Cut pineapple leaves from the remaining plastic. They look like long triangles. We glue them into the opening of the bottle, forming a funnel. We bend the leaves in different directions.
Step 6
Our pineapple lampshade is ready. It remains to fix it to a lamp or floor lamp.
