Master class - lamp shade

To make a lampshade in our case, you need:

So, we proceed to manufacture a unique lampshade:

  1. Take your old lamp, which has long broken the ceiling. If you do not have one, then buy the cheapest inexpensive primitive lamp in the store. In stores where they sell lamps, you can buy a table lamp without a plafond for a penny.
  2. And now, when the very basis we already have, we need to make a framework. We make it from wire, it is better, of course, to involve the husband in this matter. If you have a whole plafond, it's just old and inconspicuous, and you decided to update it, then you do not need to make a frame.
  3. For a while, we set aside our base, the plafond or the frame and proceed to create the decor elements of our lamp. Take any fabric, at your discretion and cut from it circles. Their diameter depends on how much you want a flower. We have a diameter of 5 cm.
  4. If you do not have special hot scissors, which, when cutting, immediately process the edges of the fabric, so that they do not crumble, use a candle or a cigarette lighter. If the edges of the fabric do not crumble, they can not be processed.
  5. Then take the needle and thread. Sew the edges of the fabric and tighten them well. You will have a beautiful petal. Make a lot of such petals.
  6. Next, proceed to assemble the flower itself. Take five petals and sew them at the very base along the edge, close the ring and sew the first and last petals together. You will get a wonderful flower, in the middle of which you need to insert a bead, pearls, sequins, a button or other material. It depends on your wild imagination. So do with all the petals.
  7. When you have created a sufficient number of flowers, take your frame or plafond and proceed to the most interesting stage.
  8. If you fasten your flowers on the plafond, then simply glue them with glue like "Moment Crystal". It is completely transparent and will not leave a trace, even if it gets out a little in prominent places.
  9. If you have made a frame, then it is better to first tighten it. For this purpose, an old, unnecessary tulle. And on it already sew your flower garden. By the way, you can make flowers in different colors and arrange them with a certain pattern. You just need to give free rein to your imagination. At us the same lamp has turned out here.

And finally a little advice. If you make a frame, do not make it too narrow. This will allow it to decorate with flowers, made even from the lightest fabric.

We are confident that such a table lamp will not only not go unnoticed, but it will surprise all your guests.
