Lamp Kits for Glass Bottles
Posted on | July 7, 2009 | 9 Comments

Grace from design*sponge shared a great glass jug lamp this morning on twitter. She wondered where she could find the parts to make her own. I’ve been eyeing this project for months. I would love some glass jug lamps scattered all around my house. They feel so nautical and New England.
Above is an inspiration shot from Tom Scheerer. A few glass reed wrap bottles and insulators I’ve spotted at local flea markets below. The jugs are quite easy to convert. You can purchase a cork sockets for around $15, thanks Kate Flaim for the source! Basically you just stick the cork into the bottle and your done. Below an Insulator Night Light Kit for $20. So cute for a small space or hallway.
I haven’t found a source online yet for vintage glass jugs. I have spotted them at fleamarkets and antique stores around New England. Do you know a good online source? Leave a comment below.
p.s. Anne from the City Sage just gave me the head’s up on a post about unique jug resources on decorology.
