For those who appreciate [partial DIY projects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/analog-lamps-1), the Edward Lamp is a delightful addition to your living space. The product is purchased flat as a set of parts that you can easily combine to create a light fixture to your preferred specifications.

There isn't a great deal of freedom of assembly with this illuminator, which actually makes it easier to put together. What you get with it is a round piece of translucent plastic, a lightbulb and mount, and a pair of [wooden pincers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hoop-table-lamp) that keeps everything together.

The form|knast item is properly set up when you insert the wooden fixture into the plastic sheet's slot. Wrap and even overlap the ends of the lampshade to make a [wide or narrow cone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ori-lamp). Finally, clamp the Edward Lamp in place with the timber braces; their handles will act like a stabilizing stand.
