CUSTOM LED LIGHT FIXTURE
modern builds: s.02 Ep.40
This week on Modern Builds, I’m taking basic, 4 foot Amazon shop lights and using common materials to turn them into modern, functional pendant light fixtures that have major WOW factor. I used metal stucco corner mesh pieces to create a wire metal shade and a pine dowel to help balance the piece and introduce a more natural element to the piece(s). To round it all out, I used 3/8” paracord to cover the start white power cords so that they match the wire cage over the light. Check out the video above and the list of materials below. :)
