I MADE THIS LIGHT SHADE MYSELF AND IT WAS REALLY EASY AND INEXPENSIVE TO DO.

I BOUGHT THE FRAME FOR MY LAMP SHADE AT MY LOCAL CRAFT STORE

SONY DSCYOU COULD ALSO RECYCLE AN OLDER WIRE FRAMED SHADE BY STRIPPING OFF THE OLD COVERING.

SONY DSCI USED KNITTING YARN TO DECORATE MY SHADE. THE PROCESS WAS REALLY SIMPLE. I CHOSE MY COLOURS AND WRAPPED THEM AROUND THE FRAME IN STRIPES. AS I STRETCHED THE YARN AROUND THE FRAME I LOOPED IT AROUND EACH OF THE WIRE SEGMENTS TO ANCHOR IT.

SHADE

I USED SYNTHETIC YARN BECAUSE IT COMES IN SUCH BRIGHT COLOURS.
