About me

Hi there, we're Clay and Rory, the designers behind Will it Lamp?, a lamp shop and content series turning odds and ends from thrift stores and beyond into delightful light fixtures. We both run our own lighting design practices—Clay focuses on wood, Rory's more into ceramics—but our project together teaches practical design tips by transforming discarded objects into (you guessed it) lamps! We're so excited to explore with you all the age-old question, "Will it lamp?"
