That was the first thing that came to mind when i read your post.
Convert ceiling light to table lamp.
Hang your newly converted lamp with ceiling anchor hooks.
When i saw this stick light on joss main i thought it was fun and beachy yet geometric.
These white porcelain fixtures hold a single light bulb and are turned on and off by pulling on a chain located to the side of the bulb.
Since the metal rod will support the socket within the shade its length can vary as long as the bulb is kept within the shade.
Use a hanging light socket with a pull chain or an attached switch if you want to turn your hanging light on and off without plugging and unplugging it each time.
It was very cute.
Not all lampshades require a shade carrier.
It does take a bit of time and concentration but the results are well worth the effort you put into it.
There are various sizes to choose from depending on the size of your lampshade.
Changing a swag light into a hardwired lighting fixture is not very difficult.
How to convert a ceiling light to a receptacle.
It immediately struck my eye as being right side up and just as quickly the idea came to me to make a table lamp from it.
To make sure i wasn t being weird i ran the idea of converting this plug in table lamp by john.
She took the crutches apart and made a tripod with them.
Shade carriers sit onto table lamps and act as a cradle so that a lampshade can simply sit on top of it.
If not when you install the pendant then eventually as gravity works on it and temperature and humidity fluctuate.
This conversion is.
Unless the can for the recessed light is fixed to the framing of your house or at the very least to your ceiling the pendant light will pull the can out of the ceiling eventually.
The design is horrendous and dangerous.
Picture it hanging from the ceiling.
You will also need a light conversion kit so that your floor lamp will have a plug.
A swag light is a hanging light that hangs from a hook in the ceiling and plugs into a wall outlet.
If you have a light fixture in a location that would be better served by a pull chain fixture you can convert a light to a pull chain in just a few minutes.
If only these worked anywhere nearly as easily.
Then secure to the inside of your lamp.
Some have the correct fitment already on the frame so just go straight onto the table lamp.
Thankfully he was right there on the stick light train with me.
Angie and i were looking through our local habitat for humanity re store lighting section when i saw a ceiling light fixture sitting upside down on the shelf.
She painted it black.
And call me crazy but i immediately looked at it and saw a ceiling pendant.
