Lampshade Making Workshops
This class is perfect for beginners who want to learn the craft of contemporary lampshade making. You’ll learn how to apply the lampshade PVC to get the best out of your fabric, how to attach the rings and create neat rolled edges, amongst a variety of other techniques. You will either make a 20cm or 30cm diameter fabric lampshade which can be used on a lamp base or ceiling pendant. By the end of the workshop you will get to go home with your very own bespoke lampshade and will have all the skills to create many more beautiful shades!
Ticket cost includes all tools for the class apart from fabric, which you will need to bring along with you (ironed if possible)
Your fabric will need to be one of the following,
For a 20cm size lampshade you will need a 75cm x 25cm piece of fabric
For a 30cm size lampshade you will need a 110cm x 30cm piece of fabric
We recommend using a light to medium weight fabric, either a cotton, poly cotton or a linen/cotton mix. If you have any questions about fabric then do get in touch
