DIY Morrocan Lamps

July 6, 2011 - Posted by Zara Maddocks

Recently Centsational Girl began a terrific little weekly Best of the Blogosphere round-up that Ive really enjoyed checking out. When this idea popped up by Ruffled, it reminded me immediately of these West Elm lanterns that I used in this outdoor inspiration board for the May issue of San Diego Magazine.

Pretty similar, right?

So simple and so lovely these would look beautiful around a garden party or as centerpieces for a wedding. And I love that theyre made out of the metal found on a used radiator cover!! Really, I know its crazy. So resourceful. You could also use upcycled perforated metal sheets or purchase from a major home supply store.

A bit of white spray paint for the metal and an immediate transformation. The clover design is an added perk.

Full tutorial here.

Hope you had a lovely weekend! We traveled out to South Bend, Indiana for my brothers graduation from the University of Notre Dame. Were having a great time and I had the chance to celebrate my birthday on Sunday with family while there!
