A flowery fabric lampshade is surprisingly easy to create and adds a touch of spring to any room
If you are starting with a lamp that could use a little love, begin by covering it with a fresh layer of fabric. This will provide a clean base to adorn with fabric flowers. You may choose to cover the lamp completely, or just embellish the rims or certain areas. Pro-tip: Prior to gluing the flowers on permanently, play around first by pinning them in various areas to find your favorite layout.
This is a fabulous way to dress up a tired lampshade. Why overspend at department stores when you can stock up on fresh new fabrics for the season and make your own version, your own way?
You can purchase ready-made fabric flowers, or you’re your own. Note that making fabric flowers will take a bit of time–but once you get the hang of it, it is quite rewarding! Once you have completed crafting your fabric flowers, you will need a durable fabric glue to secure them to the lampshade. You may use a variety of different fabrics to create the fabric flowers, or go with a solid pattern. This is a versatile craft that can be tailored to your room décor.
