Some people have asked if it’s possible to install their custom drum lampshade onto a pendant light kit so it can hang from the ceiling. There are three answers to this question - yes, oui & sí! All you need to do is disassemble a standard pendant light kit so the lampshade can be attached. See my video tutorial on this project below.

 

 

 

  

The lampshade featured in this tutorial was created using one of my DIY lampshade kits. These kits have what’s called a 'spider' ring. Most lampshades in the US utilize a spider ring, which is handy because your pendant light kit cord can be thread through the spider ring very easily.

After acquiring the pendant light kit of your choice, dis-assemble the ceiling mount so you can thread the cord through the top of the lampshade. Depending on the kit, you might also need to disassemble part of the socket so the lampshade hangs securely. Then simply re-assemble the ceiling mount and any other attachments.

My husband and I lost 1.1m worth of Bitcoins to a fake cryptocurrency investment platform. A few months back, we saw an opportunity to invest in cryptocurrency to make huge profits from our investments. We contacted a broker online who was pretending to be an account manager for a forex trading firm, we invested a huge part of our retirement savings and business money into this platform not realizing it was all a sc^m to steal away our money. After weeks of trying to withdraw, this broker continued to request more money until we were broke and in debt, it felt as if we were losing our life. Fortunately for us, we saw an article about a recovery hacker called HACKER RODNEY CRYPTO TRACES AND RECOVERY , we were not in a hurry to contact them but we did some research about their services and found out they could help us recover our money from these scammers, we contacted Refund Policy and in a space of 72 hours, they were able to recover everything, this company did a thorough investigation with the information we provided them and ensured that every penny was returned to us, it felt so unreal how they were able to recover everything we have lost. We are truly grateful for the help of HACKER RODNEY CRYPTO TRACES AND RECOVERY home and we are putting this out there to everyone who needs their services.
