7-Lamp Wooden Lighting Pendant

I made a wooden lighting fixture for my living room. I use fir wood, LED filament lamps (E27/230V) at various wattage and shape.

For the lighting fixture construction I use

• 1200X400X28 mm wood
• Black vintage lamp-holders with built-in switch
• Black colour 2X1 s.m. cable
• Black chain
• Black ceiling rosette

For the painting and protection of the wood I use

• Dark walnut colour impregnation varnish
• Transparent P.U. parquet floor varnish

I cut the edges of the wood with jig saw at random shape and inclination. I sand the cuts, so the edges soften and I prepare the wood for the painting

I mark the spots that I would like to place the lamp-holders and I made the holes with a drill

I paint the wood with the dark walnut varnish (2 passes) and then I apply 2 passes of the P.U. protection varnish

At the final step I place the lamp-holders, the hooks for the hanging for the chain, I made the connections and the project was completed

I install the 7-lamp lighting fixture at my living room. The total wattage is only 58W and it provides 6820 lumens of light!

The total cost for this project was only 65 euros and the result was really satisfying

Super bright, low-cost and vintage look
