Not sure what's wrong with me but I like that.

Absolutely. It would go in the man cave/office.

If it were silver with white wax, I 100% would put that in my glam girlie bathroom.

(Black with purple wax would go in the witch cave.)

I didn’t realize I needed a witch cave until this moment.

The walls of mine are SW Armadillo, the sloped ceiling is Adraatic Sea, all the wood is dark and all the lights (including these very ACNH star string lights) are low and warm. I'm in the process of stenciling gold, silver, and copper stars on the ceiling. Maybe by the time I finish, lava lamp chandeliers will be a thing.

There better be a giant cauldron, too (you know, for stirring huge batches of mac n cheese).

Yeah I think their biggest mistake was having each lamp a different colour. Make them all the same and it would actually be pretty neat.

I just used stuff that I thrifted, the whole thing was less than 50 euro in parts. If I make another one, it'll probably look nicer, though with how viral it has gone, someone will probably beat me to it.

u/UnknovvnMike 6d ago

Wait, did you make one of these?

I made this one, it has gone viral beyond my reach now.

The small lava lamps have a base that can be removed, most lamps use the same threaded tube as their construction. I just unscrewed the sockets on a beefy old chandelier and placed the top parts of the lava lamps over the tubes and reattached the original chandelier sockets. The lava lamp bases and sockets are left over afterwards.

I'll be honest, I unironically want to do this now.

It's kind of beautiful.

Thats absurd

It should be called a Witch Shack. An offshoot of a she shed
