DIY A Glamorous Floor Lamp Using Foam Floral Rings From Dollar Tree

Finding the right lamp for your style and budget can be a hassle. Fortunately, the internet is full of fabulous hacks to get expensive-looking lighting at Dollar Tree prices, including a stunning craft that creates a light feature from foam floral rings. To get the look, you'll need to connect the hoops with mending plates and hot glue, decorate them, and string them with LED twinkle lights. The finished project looks straight out of a high-end furniture catalog. If you want to create unique decorative lighting with a DIY that left us impressed, this is a great project to try.

This creation is best suited to crafters with a little experience, as there is hot glue and a bit of mess involved. Feel free to stray from the original instructions and add your own personality to the mix. Swapping out decorative features and playing with color as you go along offers the chance to match this furnishing to your current home decor. If you're unsure how to choose the perfect floor lamp for your space, this is the chance to make one yourself. Check out how to build this luxe light without breaking the bank.

To start, pop over to Dollar Tree for four green foam floral rings, a Crafter's Square hanging sign, tiny decorative pebbles, and diamond shaped vase filler. If you're not a fan of the circle shape for your design, Dollar Tree also has glitter foam hearts. Pickup mending plates in two sizes, like the Hillman Group mending plate and four of the shorter Mintcraft zinc mending plates, as well as a bracket. You'll also need hot glue, Mod Podge, twinkle lights, and metallic embellishments like Generic mirror mosaic tile. With supplies ready, it's time to light up your space.

Connect the rings with the metal plates and hot glue. The longest plate goes into the bottom ring and is attached with a metal bracket to the wood sign for a base. Coat the rings in Mod Podge and pebbles for texture. Paint everything gold, and use mirror tiles to cover exposed metal. Glue diamonds to the foam for a glitzy finish and wrap them with fairy lights. Customize by changing paint colors, or swapping the pebbles for a finer textured product, like baking soda. Arm and Hammer suggests mixing 1 tablespoon of powder into 1 cup of paint to get the look. Upgrade the base by covering it in metallic vinyl or staining the wood. Who knew you could illuminate your space by transforming Dollar Tree items into a floor lamp? However you personalize it, it's sure to bring a high-end look to your space.
