Use caution when drilling and working with hot glue. Use a cool-running LED bulb rather than an incandescent bulb to reduce the risk of overheating the paper shade.","realization_potential":"0.7000","published_at":"2026-06-14T21:09:06.000Z","last_edited_at":"2026-08-12T12:25:36.972Z","article_id":null,"article":null,"author":{"id":"ed-001","display_name":"Daria Mikhailova","avatar_url":null,"job_title":"Senior Home & Interior Editor","bio":"Daria Mikhailova is the Senior Home & Interior Editor at 5-Minute Crafts, focused on cardboard furniture, wall art, and small-space organisation.","same_as":[]},"stats":{"save_count":0,"like_count":0,"realization_count":0,"comment_count":0},"top_realizations":[],"top_comments":[],"related_atom_slugs":[]}}
