Double decker Frosta side table with integrated lighting

Materials: Frosta Stool x 2, Antifoni Work Lamp, Angle Brackets x 4, Cord Tidy x 2

Description: Using a couple of Frosta stools and an Antifoni lamp, I've created a Frosta side table with a built in light.

I wanted an small side table with a lamp on it - however simply placing a lamp on top was going to take up far too much valuable surface space.

The Antifoni lamp was perfect for my needs, as the lamp base and arm are detachable - and the arm can easily be inserted into a hole drilled into the Frosta top. For best results, drill a hole in line with a leg, as you'll be able to secure the lamp power cable to the leg later.

Just remember not to drill the hole too wide, as you'll want the lamp to be a secure fit (though if you do - a length of insulation wrapped a few times around the arm before being inserted into the drilled hole will help). Once in place, you'll be able to swivel the arm freely.

The lower shelf, from a second Frosta stool, is secured in place using four angle brackets, one for each leg.

A couple of cord tidies stuck on the back of one leg to keep the power cable neat and out of sight, and you're done!
