Materials that will be required for: 
To create a lamp, you will need an inflatable ball and rope.
- rope waxed or hemp (the main thing is that it consisted of natural material), size 15-20 m;
- inflatable ball (you can have a beach ball, fitness ball);

Step-by-step description of the luminaire manufacturing
The size of the balloon depends on the sizelamp. The surface on which we will make the lamp from the rope with our own hands, we need to make a newspaper, in order not to cause confusion in the room. It's easier to throw the newspaper out than to wash the apartment off the glue all day. Next, we collect full lungs of air and inflate the ball (or the ball that you found). The size of the inflated ball depends on how much you want your luminaire to be. The case will move faster if you have a pump. On an inflated ball or ball, draw a circular hole with a marker or a felt-tip pen, with a diameter of 10 cm (if the ball is 40 cm in diameter). It will be needed for us to insert a lamp holder in our lamp. And this will be the bottom of our lamp. Thanks to this opening, the light will scatter throughout the room. To get a smooth circle, take something round and circle. Do not forget to leave on the other side somewhere 2-3 cm free for the lamp holder. Now you need to moisten the rope in the glue. In an unnecessary container, for example, in a carved plastic bottle, dilute the glue. Thread around your wrist and put it in a container with glue. After that, gently pull it out and use your fingers to remove excess glue. With this rope in the glue, start winding the balloon. Be careful, the round hole you drew is not worth wrapping with a rope, it's a place for a lamp holder. Wind the ball with a rope as much as you need. Do not try to do everything beautifully, the randomness of the rope will create an original pattern on the lamp. 
The rope is wetted in glue, and then woundon the ball. If the rope is dried during wrapping, dip it again into the glue. Do not forget to hide and glue the ends of the cord. The better you glue the cord, the lighter will be stronger. When wrapped the entire length, allow the bowl to dry. It takes about 24-48 hours. When the ball is completely dry, take a pin or needle and burst it. Wait until the ball is blown away, do not help it, otherwise you can break the lamp design. Then gently remove the remains of the ball from the round hole and discard them. To make the rope lamp with your own hands look even more impressive, you can paint it with latex paint, since it is non-toxic, odorless and diluted with water. It will add strength to the product. Choose the color of the paint that suits you in the interior of the room. Dilute it in water (with proportions of 2 cups of paint 1 glass of water). Lower the lamp several times in this solution every 3-4 seconds. Back to contents</a>
Recommendations for the manufacture of a luminaire
In order for the lamp to burn, to itit is necessary to attach a socket with a light bulb. If you want to increase the diameter of the ball by 10 cm (from 40 cm), then increase the diameter of the hole by 5 cm (from 10 cm) and so on. While the rope and glue dries, the ball may deflate. And then the shape of our chandelier will not be round at all, but oval. To prevent it from deflating, carefully untie the tail of the balloon and blow in the air with all your might. But this should be done when the ball is a little dry. Tie the ball again, let it dry further. Note that when the balloon is hot, the volume of air in it is greater than when the room is cool. To keep the ball warm, you can put a heater in the room, it will raise warm air. Just do not overheat the balloon, otherwise it will burst. Be careful: you cannot keep the lamp in the paint for a long time, because it can soak the glue base of the rope. So the lampshade turned out. In order for it to turn into a lamp, you need to attach a lamp holder to it. It is easy to insert through the round hole. to the ceiling. It is better to use a low power light bulb so that it does not heat up the lampshade too much. You can also decorate the lamp with butterflies, which you can buy in the store, or flowers, woven from beads or made from strips of paper (using the quilling technique), and so on. There is no limit to imagination. Don't be afraid to experiment! Let it be a little handmade joy in your apartment.
