Coffee Filter Lamp

 

I've been wanting to make something out of coffee filters for a long time. I've seen a lot of different projects using them and one of my favorites is the coffee filter lamp shade. I got a new lamp base last week from Target and I already had the lamp shade so I decided to try it out!

 

This is the link to the tutorial I used: http://www.lizmarieblog.com/2011/04/coffee-filter-lamp-shade/. Her coffee filter lamp shade was the first one I ever saw and I fell in love with it.

 

Here is a picture of my inspiration from Lizmarieblog. *Note- hers turned out way cuter than mine did. I don't think I folded mine is as many times as she did.

It was a very cheap project. I used about 250 coffee filters and it took me a couple of hours. The lamp has found its home on our night stand in the master bedroom.
