Fringed Lamp Shade
Hessian, Fringing and all things textural are still going strong as an interior trend. So I thought I’d buy some fringing and upcycle an old lampshade. I am very pleased with the result.
You will need
Lamp Shade
Glue gun and glue sticks
Scissors
Roll of Hessian Fringing
1.Wrap the fringed hessian round the base of the shade and add an extra centimeter and then cut.
2. Stick the first band of fringing to the bottom of the lamp so the edge of the fringe is parallel to the edge of the lamp.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 sticking the fringing so it just touches the row below. Do this until the lamp is covered in fringing.
4. Pull away the cord that holds the fringing together on all the rows and then put it on the lamp base.
