DIY Thrift Store Light Shade: Easy Home Upgrade

I love my dining room light fixture… but the exposed bulb was blinding every time I looked up. So I went to the thrift store to see if I could DIY a simple fix. In this video I turn a thrift store bowl into a removable light shade using chains, hooks and a few simple tools. This easy DIY lighting hack diffuses the light, hides the bulb and creates a warm, moody glow in the room. If you have an exposed bulb light fixture or harsh overhead lighting, this thrift flip is an easy way to upgrade your space without replacing the entire light.
