Yes, we know Christmas is still more than a month away. But that shouldn’t play spoil sport to our celebratory mood. In fact, we have decided to start up the countdown to this year’s festivities with some home oriented designs that are pretty essential to Christmas decorations. We are talking about those delectable lamps that light up the home spaces in their own sprightly manner. So, without further ado, let us check out ten such charming and nifty Christmas lamps that delightfully elevates our holiday spirits.
1. fLume lamp
They say a picture is worth more than a thousand words. Well, that dictum holds true in the case of the fLume lamp, a Christmas light design crafted from discarded Christmas trees. Nigh poetic in its scope, the conception is the brainchild of the et al. Collaborative studio. Basically, the design process entails salvaging the used Christmas trees (that otherwise would have ended in chippers), and then clearing off the branches and the leaves. Finally, the remaining main trunk is re-purposed as a simple, minimalist lamp with its own definitive rustic essence.
2. Santa Claus LED lamps
Adding a dash of vibrancy to the Christmas decorations, nothing quiet revs up our spirits than the one and only Santa. Available in both packages of ten and in individual pieces, the delectable LEDs lights are made from PVC, which is white when not lit up. However, once you flick the on-switch, the lights showcase their sweet vivacity in various hues ranging from light blue, lime green to adorable pink.

3. ‘Nightmare before Christmas’ lamp

The iconic Leg Lamp design from ‘A Christmas Story’ has been iterated numerous times by various designers and DIYers around the globe.

9. Handmade Christmas Lamp from CDs
Let’s get honest for a minute – CDs are about to be extinct in a matter of few years. And, we all have our fair share of decrepit MP3s and CDs that have seen better times. So, why not give them a second life, like the above pictured handmade Christmas Lamp? The external facades are made of CDs, thus making use of their ‘rainbow pattern’ to create an even more vivacious ambiance. The internal paraphernalia on the other hand is composed from conventional LED strings (that also project out from the middle of the discs).
10. Christmas light wad lamps
We end our list with another DIY conception in the form of the Christmas light wad lamps. The simple and effective lighting solution is pretty cheap and more importantly easy to assemble with the help of just some glass containers and light strings.
