I am "shady" kind of a girl....in a good way. I love lampshades! I love how they can add color and pattern instantly and are so easily changed out. It's not painting an entire room to get a different feel. Changing a lampshade is 1 of those "no commitment" things.
No surprise, I change some of my lampshades 3-4 times a year - with the seasons and holidays. I have bought them brand new, on clearance and also second hand. If you have a shade you don't love or have one that needs updating, try decoupaging it!
Materials:
Lamp shade
colored or patterned paper napkins
Mod Podge
brush
scissors
Step 1: Tear the hard edges off the napkin pieces. I like the finished shade to have a more fluid feel than hard, straight, rectangular lines that don't match up.
Step 2: Brush some mod podge on the lamp shade and place 1 of your napkins pieces on top. Brush more Mod Podge over the top. Continue layering and overlapping until the entire shade is covered.
Use your scissors to trim the edge that wraps around the top and bottom lip of the lampshade
Let dry. Place it on your lamp base and enjoy!
I will be sharing this idea at the crafty link up parties this week!
