Vintage Industrial Style Lampshades

Lampshades are, generally, very boring. Lampshades are the home decorating equivalent of tireflaps on a car. If the lamp is designed properly, you don't really even need them. That said, much like mudflaps, there's room for some artistic expression when it comes to your lampshades. Etsy seller Patturn wants to help ... continue reading

Possum Belly Pipe Shelves

Turning random pieces of hardware into art is possible, but it's not always easy.

Lampified Lighting

When we look at the boxes of old junk in our attics, the first thought for most of us is, "How high can I jack the shipping charges to turn a profit on Ebay when I unload this crap?" Usually, the hassle of selling and packaging it all isn't worth it, so it just sits there with no purpose indefinitely. The folks over ... continue reading

Lamp Waaf

There's a reason they call dogs "man's best friend." Unlike cats, dogs want attention all the time, wait for you to get home from work and won't eat your eyeballs if you happen to kick the bucket. Don't get us wrong, we have cats too, and we love them, but they'll never quite fill the place in a man's heart that Fido ... continue reading

Illuminating Repurposed Vintage Relics

Scrolling through the work of Benclif Designs is like taking a stroll through some demonic kid's laboratory. At first it all seems very reminiscent of the work of a wiser Sid from Toy Story. Old toys and appliances deconstructed and rebuilt to serve an entirely different purpose. That's only your first thought though, ... continue reading

Schoolhouse Electric & Supply Lift Lamp

We've been fans of vintage light fixtures for quite some time, but the price was always a huge barrier to entry for us. If we can rip down some drywall, mount brand new recessed cans and put bulbs in them for a couple hundred bucks, why should something that's as old as we are command an equivalent price? Schoolhouse ... continue reading

Despite what the name implies, a man cave needs good lighting.

Lightin Beer Lamps

Outside of DIY windmills, BB gun targets, pyramid building and impressive feats of strength, we didn't think there was anything useful to do with beer cans. Thomas Stanley Design proves us wrong again with their Lightin Beer Can Lamps. The concept is so simple it's brilliant. Take one larger aluminum beer can (Guinness ... continue reading

Magnetic Switch Cover

When you're running late and you have somewhere you absolutely have to be, you will always be incapable of finding your keys. They're not in the bowl by the door, the pants you were just wearing or in your bag. You didn't lock them in the car.
