home decorating ideas contemporary

(upbeat, rhythmic music) - [tresha] hey guys, welcomeback to the channel with tresha and i have been doin' somesearching on the internet lately, and i saw that modern wall lights are pretty expensive these days. so i figure anybody who'slookin' for wall lights probably don't wannapay these kinda prices. so if you're on a budget i will show you how you can make your own

for $4 using only dollar tree supplies. so let's get started. at the dollar tree i purchasedthese alphabet blocks, a pack of drinkingstraws, a paper lantern, and a round mirror. the first step that i did was remove the light from the lantern. using e6000 and a dab of hot glue i attached the block to the light.

(lively, melodic music) next i cut the straws toget rid of the flexible tip. next i hot glue each straw to the light. if you notice, i'veformed a specific pattern, but you can create your own pattern. there are so many ways. i found some of the straws were too long so i decided to cut it down. afterwards i went outsideand spray painted the straws

using a silver metallic paint. i bet it will look reallypretty in other colors too. next i flipped over the mirrorand removed the felt pads. this will allow me to have a flat surface. then i added e6000 tothe back of the block and glued it to the mirror. once the glue was dry i added command strips to the back of it and pressed it on the wall.

now you have modern wall lights you can stick anywhere you want. what do you guys think? what other ideas come to mind for you? if you would like tocontribute to my channel, go to patreon.com/designsbytresha. i'll leave the link in thedescription box below as well. the money that is receivedwill go to production equipment and for project supplies,
