MAKE A DRUM LAMPSHADE
Join Nicky to make a beautiful 30cm rolled-edge lampshade, ready to use (although some finishing is sometimes required at home). There’s no sewing! You should bring along a piece of light to medium weight fabric such as cotton or linen (see sizes below) and, if you have them, a pair of general purpose or dressmaking scissors. We can supply scissors and cutting tools so don’t worry if you don’t have anything suitable. You will learn how to:
- Position your fabric on the lampshade, thinking about pattern placement and repeats
- Adhere your fabric onto the laminate panel used to make the shade
- Hand roll the covered panel on to the lampshade rings, expertly tucking the fabric under the rings to make the perfect shade
You will go home with a wonderful bespoke lampshade and the skills to make many more!
The tuition fee includes one 30cm (dia) lampshade kit (white inside). The minimum required fabric size is 970mm wide x 255mm + 20mm all round.
Suitable for adults. Refreshments are included, for when you need a little break. Spaces are limited to 4 so early booking is advised.
IMPORTANT Secure payment is currently via PayPal only. You don’t need an account. You’ll receive a PayPal receipt immediately. Your booking will confirmed by email within two days.
