LYKTA Silhouette


Materials: Lykta Lamp 1 Photocopy/printed transparency (1 A4) tape or stick glue

Description: I love the Lykta lamps but they are too bright for the bedroom. We have a cityscape silhouette theme through the flat so I photocopied a London skyline sunset onto a transparency.



It turns out that two A5 Landscape pictures fit perfectly height and width around the outside of the lampshade.

I cut them the A4 sheet in half and joined the short edges.

Voila.

Lacey Lykta Lamp


Materials: Lykta table lamp, lace tights, spray paint

Description: Simple but effective

1. Choose a Lytka lamp in the colour you most like and spray paint- black will give more contrast.

2. Put the tights or any other lacey fabric on the lamp so that the pattern stretches on the surface.

3. Make a knot above and below the lampshade part of Lykta, be sure you cover well the cable and the lower part of the lamp!

4. Take spray paint and spray the lamp from approx. 15cm distance, thoroughly.

5. Wait few minutes until the paint dries a bit and take the fabric slowly off the lamp.

6. Leave it somewhere with good air circulation overnight- it will loose the smell and the stickiness of paint.

7. Light it up and voila!
