When it comes to home decor makeovers, new lighting makes a world of difference, but it can also break the bank! The great thing about a kitchen light makeover project is that you can keep your budget down by recycling items from your own drawers. From grater pendant lamps to meat grinder table lamps, there’s something cool for every lamp lover out there in today’s inspirational post where we look at kitchen utensils to upcycle into a DIY lamp.
If you’re looking to upgrade your kitchen, you might find yourself overwhelmed by how much there is to actually improve, but one thing should always be on the list: redo the lighting! When you have only one lighting source in the kitchen, generally it’s a ceiling fixture, you’re not getting the same amount of light in all areas. So, because of your position, you might actually be casting a shadow on your workspace, which isn’t exactly safe when you’re chopping vegetables like they do on Master Chef.
Kitchen lighting plays a multiple role. It’s not just functional and decorative, it’s also ambiental and essential for safety. Pendant lamps work perfect for bars and islands, while ceiling lights are needed to illuminate the whole room, cabinet lights are modern and look cool, while table lamps or wall sconces add more light to specific spaces, like your workspace or dining area. Add a DIY lamp made of upcycled kitchen utensils to the mix, and you’ll get a cool new lighting fixture to add a unique touch to your decor.

All you have to do is hit the thrift store, go visit your grandma or just look in your counter drawers for unused kitchen utensils. Check out the list below to find DIY recycling ideas to create unique new lamps for your kitchen.
The coolest thing about upcycling kitchen utensils into DIY lamps is that the only limit is your imagination and often, the actual DIY process can imply only two things: a wiring kit and a light bulb.

My name is Hailey Garcia and I am from New Jersey. My herpes virus turned to war after 2 years of living with it. I have tried different medical procedures to cure my herpes but to no avail. Most people think herpes is only a minor skin irritation of which herpes has long term effects on health and passes through the bloodstream and can be easily contracted through sexual intercourse. I knew I had herpes from the first day I started feeling itchy in my pubic area and the pain was very unbearable. I couldn’t stand it anymore. After 2 years of trying other means to get rid of it, I had to contact Doctor Odunga to help me with a permanent cure. I saw his email and whats-app number from a testimony I read online from a lady who was also helped by him in curing infertility problems, I had faith and contacted him. He assured me of his work and I ordered his herbal medicine. Within 5 days, I didn’t feel any pain anymore and within 2 weeks, my skin was all cleared and smooth. I am very grateful to you sir and I write this testimony as others have done to bring those having faith to you sir. If you have herpes or other similar disease and you want it cured, kindly contact Doctor Odunga, Whats-App (wa.me/+2348167159012) OR Email odungaspelltemple@gmail.com
