    My vintage doorknob lamp. It was posted on here in the garden junk section, but I could not find it so I thought it might have vanished in a forum change?

    I made it with some vintage doorknobs that already had holes in the center, and one of those old glass ashtrays from a stand ashtray and a lamp kit and some e6000 glue which you all told me about. My oDS helped by being a spare pair of hands.

    I have never found or seen more doorknobs like them.

    That's a very nice lamp! I would never even get an idea like that. Very creative. Good thinking on your part.

    That’s such a creative and unique lamp! You did an awesome job repurposing those vintage doorknobs and the old glass ashtray, it’s got a really cool, personal touch. If you’re looking to add more lighting to your space, Sunmory floor lamps would fit your style perfectly.
