All you need to make this fabulous driftwood table lamp is a bunch of driftwood sticks and floral wire. Oh, and of course you'll need a lamp. But you might already have a table lamp that could use a makeover! It's a beautiful sculptural piece, similar to this Driftwood Jar Vase.

To make a driftwood table lamp like this, you just need to find the perfect driftwood piece! Linda of Coastal Charm used a simple lamp base and a lamp rod that goes all the way through (threaded on top to hold the socket). This way the cord comes out at the base which of course is perfect. But if your driftwood securely stands on its own, you could also just drill a couple inches in and tightly insert a shorter rod and use a socket with the wire coming out of it. Not as clean looking (since you see the wire coming down), but much easier to do. Brighten your day with an easy to make driftwood table lamp.
