Ryan McElhinney has come up with a very nice idea to reuse some old toys you probably have lying around. The idea is to make a tabletop lamp from them, a lampshade and a cord set.

To make the lamp you need to arrange the toys to form a nice looking base and bond them together using hot glue or any other glue you think would work. Don’t forget to put the cord through this base and fix a bulb on the top. Then you can cover the lamp base with several coats of paint and one coat of polyurethane lacquer.
