Jake Rankin has found a new way to use old Spray Paint bottles by turning them into lamps.
Jake Rankin’s lamp designs involve using the canisters as lamp shades, and the spray nozzles as on/off switches. The design is decidedly unkempt, with paint dripping down the sides. The designs are currently on sale online for $50.
