Ever wonder if you could a chandelier to your rooms with no hanging lights? If you have access to your attic, this might not be such a hard task so long as you have some tools and wire up some power lines to your desired room.
Here’s three great videos on YouTube that can help you install a chandelier:
Recently, I’ve been looking for floodlight replacement for my house because the old one was breaking and didn’t work all that well.
Well, I went to Home Depot and they had a bunch of them but they all cost like over $100 plus you needed to wire them directly to your home’s AC power.
After doing some more research with solar LED lights and other floodlights, I found this great little wireless LED floodlight
Recently I moved to a new house, finally I have more space to run my blog. Also, I am doing a bunch of DIYs around the house, like installing this 3-way dimmer switch (to save money on energy and also looks better than old switches).

Problem with most traditional wired floodlights is that they must be “wired” and that means drilling holes in the walls of your home and that can sometimes be bad (if you install it wrong).

Tired of the same old lamp you bought from IKEA? Don’t worry you don’t have to throw the lamp away (just yet), learn how to make an RGB LED lamp!
Not only will you have more fun with the different colors you will also save a bunch more energy with energy-efficient LEDs.
Here’s a great idea for a lamp that illuminates from an old book, a DIY book lamp!
Of course, don’t forget to note that you might want to use low-heat lamps as the bulb could burn the book and set your house on fire.
