With so many low-temperature lightbulbs on the market right now, paper lamps are definitely on the rise in practicality and popularity. And, with a little folding, twisting, and cutting, you can make some really fantastically organic shapes that produce really interesting interactions between light and shadow. A great example: This wonderful DIY coral-inspired paper lamp tutorial that Ananda from A Piece of Rainbow shared on Remodelaholic!

I’m definitely inspired by the versatility of this project, and love that it looks fantastic both hanging and on tabletop display.
