Custom Lamp Shades

I make custom hard-backed shades. It is a very simple process: you provide me with fabric and tell me the size shade needed. I do the rest! Send me an email, give me a phone call, whichever is easier for you. We can discuss shade shape & size, lamp shape & size, costs, etc

.

 

I made this shade to enhance the carved french lamp. This shade tends to bring out the color in the Currier & Ives print as well as complementing the fruit.Shade hex frame 5x10x7, $45

Before

 

After

Using a custom shield shade adds umph to the trench art lamp and allows light to be directed to the oil painting in the bookcase.

This toile shade measures 3" x 5.5" x 6". in the pictures below you can see how a specific shade adds character to the lamp. $35

 

 

the old shade was a bit off color and too large
custom shade shows off lamp as well as adding interest.
By adding custom trim, this bedside table lamp was inexpensively brought up-to-date.
I can start from scratch, or work with what you have. In other words, I can meet your budget as well as your decorating expectations.
       

 

 
custom, rectangular shade.
 
shade with needlepoint panel
for those of you who enjoy doing needlepoint/petitpoint here is a wonderful way to use a canvas. i can cut an existing canvas, or give you measurements for a custom square or rectangular shade. i found this piece of needlepoint in an antique store.
I made these shades for my Easter gift to these two granddaughters. Drew's pink paw print is decorated with covered buttons. Katie's pink/green shade has double whelting.
   
SOLD
 

 

The focal point of these custom shield shades is a piece removed from vintage French religious vestments. Background is linen; trim is French metallic.
 
This pair of custom shield shades are covered in antique Fortuny fabric and trimmed with French metallic trim.

Paw print shade is trimmed in solid blue and hilited with black soutache. Clip-on style shade measures 4x9x7, $30

 

       

 

Currently I am remaking a pair of very old shades made of vellum manuscripts.
Each shade was made to two pieces of vellum. Here, one piece of vellum is being prepared for its new life.
Here are two pics of the new shades. Customer selected some lovely linen for the ends of the shade.
Old French metalic trim ties the vellum and linen together. Black accents provided transition.
       


My daughter, Elizabeth, and I are offering shade making classes. Our favorite class seeme to be the 3 hour class where we make night-lights.
In order to complete a lamp shade, we need to allow for a 5 hour session. In order to provide personal attention, we limit class size to eight students.
Three hours, a willing spirit, interesting
new acquaintances, a glass of wine, & everyone can create a nite-lite
 


Bring your own fabric (1/4 yd of
prewashed cotton), or use some
from my stock. Don't forget to con-
sider using vintage linens, including
tea towels, tablecloths & drapes.
Barkcloth is out of this world!

 

.
You will leave ready to light up the night!

After a class you will find many ways to utilize your newly honed skills!

 

 
This shade was made by color-copying a photograph. Please forgive my poor photography...i was unable to eliminate the glare.
Here the light is turned on and anyone would have a smile when they view this dear scene, "cousins and their animals."
