Pretty sure I can make these light fixtures with a large beach ball, some string, starch, glue, clear enamel spray and diligence. You think?

West Elm used to sell a smaller version. I’d use one of those big punch balls. Man, I loved punch balls when I was little…
You probably saw the DIY on CraftyNest? Anyway, I like the execution here – BIG.
I didn’t see that but I’m happy for your heads up!!

The hemp is probably a much stronger alternative and may make the process a little less tedious…. These turned out really great.
Oh Bromeliad, you just sent me down a google rabbit hole. There are several good string lamp DIY instructions out there! :)

and don’t miss Door Sixteen’s sensible nod after she posts the link to the real deal.. With a price tag at $510.00 – $2,042.00 – you better sharpen some DIY skills.
I never would have thought of this as a DIY project! Where has my creativity and ambition gone! Would love to see a DIY finished string light fixture…post if you have had success!
