Grosgrain in action! |
Sometimes a shade in a color other than plain white is just the ticket. The shade on the right below is the shade that was sold with this lamp. Not to mention the original shades proportion problems, I love the way the tan pleated shade transforms this lamp!

I started inspecting the construction of the shade a bit and decided to go for it!
I'm obsessed with the way they turned out!! There is something about patterned lampshades that adds just a little extra punch! I've done this a few times now...and good news....it's such an easy and inexpensive diy project!! Even for a pleated shade, if you can measure, fold, and glue you're in business!
The shades on the lamps flanking the sofa in the living room are really begging for some love, so there may even be a tutorial in the future. :)
Are you inspired to go embellish all your lampshades?!?! ;-)
Happy Tuesday!
