Light fixtures are everywhere to be found, so we completely understand if choosing a new one turns out to be a challenge for some of our readers. It’s not easy choosing a fixture considering that it has to offer just the amount of light you need, not be tiring for the eyes, and also match your existing decor.
It might seem like a lot, but it’s not the most complicated thing in the world. With the many different material options out there, wood light fixtures are worth discussing because they bring a natural appeal to the room, something that strikes differently compared to the other options.

Caring for a Wood Light Fixture
When you have to clean a wood light fixture, you have to treat it pretty much as you would treat any piece of wooden furniture. First of all, you have to be extra careful when cleaning if you’re not going to move the wooden part of the fixture from the base, as you don’t want any water or moisture reaching the wires.
As far as cleaning tools are concerned, anything like a feather duster or a microfiber cloth should help you remove dust from the wood fixture, while a soft brush can help you get rid of debris, grime, or other things that might accumulate on the surface of the material.
Whenever you’re cleaning a light fixture, whether it’s made from wood or some other material, make sure that you avoid any liquid, turn off the lights and, if possible, remove the shade from the rest of the fixture to make it easier to clean.
DIY Wood Light Fixture
When it comes to wood that you can use to make a light fixture, your options are pretty much unlimited. There are so many projects that can teach you how to make a bed lamp by drilling a hole in a wooden bowl or how to paint wood pallet planks and use them to make an interesting floor lamp.
If you are the least bit interested in the idea of making your own wood light fixture, we came across a tutorial that you’re sure to like. To bring the project to life, you are going to need a wooden slab (which can be in the color of your choice), light housing and LED Edison bulbs (depending on how long the wooden slab is, you can place multiple light housings – this project uses three of them), a chain to use to hand your fixture, hardware pieces that include wiring and wire connectors, hook screws, and varnish for the wood.
