Materials needed to make Thread Lamp
- Fevicol
- Water
- Wool
- Air Ball/Balloon
Step 1 – Prepare a mix to soak the wool.
Mix fevicol and water into 2:1 ratio and soak wool in it.  Keep it aside for some time.
Step 2 – Take a ball or a balloon
Take a ball or balloon, remember to take a ball made of thin material that can be punctured easily at a later point.
Step 3 – Wrap the thread.
Start wrapping the thread (wool) around the ball or balloon to look like a web (shown below)
Note- I have used wool to create the web, you can use rope, string, yarn etc. to weave the web.
Step 4 – When you finished wrapping the wool, it will look like as below.
Step 5 – Pinch the ball.
Set it aside for a couple of hours for thread to dry, then pinch the ball or balloon to let the air out of it.
Step 6 – Web is ready.
Take the ball or balloon out from the web.
Step 7 – Your woven light shade is ready.
Simply add a light in it and your beautiful chandelier is ready to spread the light. This is a perfect handmade DIY home decoration for festivals like Christmas or Diwali
Note – You may add different colors in water and fevicol paste to give different color to your lampshade OR simply light bulbs of different colors to make it more beautiful.
