Ever wonder what it would be like to not just make furniture,

but to craft an emblem of your woodworking prowess?

The Arts and Crafts Table Lamp from Wood Magazine does just that, marrying the natural beauty of wood with the functional elegance of lighting.

Featuring mica panels set within a handsomely crafted wooden frame, and accented with charming copper pine-cone motifs, this isn't just a lamp—it's a statement.

The project guides you through creating tight half laps in the lampshade’s frame with surprising ease,

and even suggests a hardware kit to simplify your process.

Perfect for adding a warm glow and a craftsman touch to any room.

Pro Tips: Remember, consistency in your cuts is key.
