About the event
What
In this new workshop you can choose from making a lampshade with either a regular white lining, OR a lined shade with a fabric on the interior as well as exterior. Both shade types are made from scratch, using trade-quality materials and using modern lampshade-making techniques.
By using your own fabric the result is not only unique but perfectly suited to your personal decor style - students are unfailingingly thrilled with their results!
TIP: if you're not sure which type to choose, it's recommend to start with the unlined option - because it's simpler. You'll learn the lined method by observation, and can purchase a lined shade kit to make at home.
Where
This workshop is located in the beautiful Ainslie Arts Centre, part of a historic arts-complex located close to Canberra CBD.
