What comes with Vasili Lights' DIY Papercraft Set?
Each set includes pre-cut paper templates, which you assemble into the actual 3D paper lampshade. Those templates are packed into a solid cardboard envelope and sent to you together with an illustrated step-by-step assembly guide. Also take a look at the how-to video showing how to make your paper lamp. Cord set and bulb are not included.
The assembled lampshade fits around standard lightbulbs. You can easily attach it to a pendant light fitting which you have in your house.
How long does it take to assemble my Paper Lamp?
Few hours. Depends on your skills and how much of a perfectionist you are.
Maybe it will take longer if you take a break to move your body or shift your attention sometimes but it will help you enjoy the process. See it as a way to escape stressful everyday moments. Fall in love with the process and the results will come.
What tools do I need?
Most of the work has been done. The parts have been pre-cut. The folding lines are perforated. Here's the cool piece. Just fold along the lines and glue the parts together. All you will need for successful assembly is a glue. Optionally you can order our UHU Glue. Have fun!
What type of bulb should I use?
Our lampshades are for use with a LED light bulb only.
