Gottta say, we're always impressed by a DIY that doesn't look like a DIY. Maybe it's a fall thing but it feels to us like there's DIY in the air. First, there was Alex's AC unit cover-up. Then, yesterday, Laure highlighted 5 AT Reader DIY's that we thought were pretty great. In the comments, reader ChrisToronto shared another DIY he was wowed by...
Look! DIY Lamp
The lamp on the left is the original lamp, purchased from Craig's List. The lamp on the right is the new hacked tripod lamp, created from it and topped with a shade from Restoration Hardware. We gotta agree. Wow! For details on how this was done, click here. Thanks for sharing ChrisToronto!
Do you have a DIY you'd like to share? We'd love to see it. Send us your before and afters and let us know how you did it to la@apartmenttherapy.com.
