Ceiling lights made from salvaged Airbus airplane windows -- made by Paul Coudamy. How’d you like to work in an office outfitted with a set of these lights?!

Lamp made from old stuff: a horn, walnut plank, and shade. Nice proportions, with the base and shade roughly the same size.

DIY inspiration: Vintage kitchen canisters repurposed as pendant lights. (These were made by Rodney Trice of T.O.M.T.)

Used kitchen gear and other household items can make great table lamps and pendant lights. Colanders are particularly easy to use for DIY hanging lamps. (Gilles Eichenbaum made these lights, punching holes in the metal so light shines through.)

Extra-large Campell's soup cans repurposed as pendant lamps / lights. Would be great to have a group of them, or simply one.

This is one of the few repurposing ideas I've seen for x-rays: using them as lampshades. Definitely has #Halloween #party potential.
