Fifti Fifti's Take-Off Light is fitting for two kinds of people: the DIY-inclined and those with a habit of poking holes through paper. You know who I'm talking about—the people who can't keep their hands from haphazardly crumpling and drowsily stabbing scratch paper with pens during meetings (guilty as charged). This steel-and-paper lamp makes our lethargic tendency look good—all it takes is a steady hand and some design sense.
The perforated paper designs are held in place on the steel frame with magnets and come in two options—circles and triangles. Each kit comes equipped with a steel frame, magnets, paper templates and instructions containing design patterns and inspiration. Try your paper-poking skills by claiming your own Take-Off Light on Fifti Fifti's website.

By breathing toward the lamp, Junior lights up—literally and figuratively—into the perfect playful midday distraction. This all being said, it's probably...
