#1 DEAR IKEA

Here’s “Dear Ikea” – Inspired by Ingo Mauers “Dear Ingo”. I wanted to make a cool, modern looking chandelier that didn’t have to be expensive. So I did. Out of IKEA TERTIAL lamps, a table leg and some black MDF plates. Read more.

#3 THREE ARM INGO

Jason’s version consists of three TERTIAL work lamps, fixed upside down to the ceiling. He says, “The TERTIAL lamp is the simplest and cheapest and I already had one laying around. The room calls for a decorative lighting fixture, but there is no such thing as a cheap, beautiful, classy chandelier. My solution was to add a bit of irony, surprise and humor to the problem.” Read more.

#4 Hanging TERTIAL ceiling lamp

For my TERTIAL iPad holder hack, I cannibalized a TERTIAL, but had the lamp as a left-over. So I decided to create a hanging lamp with it. I wanted two lamps so I bought another TERTIAL. Read more.

#5 TERTIAL ceiling light remix

I needed something brighter to go over the desk in my office. My apartment came with a generic residential lamp that wasn’t quite fulfilling the light I needed to work.

So using about three Tertial Lamps from Ikea that I had found last year, I made a hanging lamp with four 40w bulbs that I can individually control with switches, that also plugs into the existing light fixture with an adapter I got at the dollar store, so I can turn the entire fixture on and off using the wall switch.
