About the event

What

Participants will not only be going home with their own fabulous, unique shade, but will get a thorough grounding into the art of modern lampshade making, where the fabric is bonded to the lampshade wall - no sewing is involved.

You can choose to make either a drum shape or tapered  shape shade in a choice of sizes (S, M, L and XL) - options shown at checkout.

When

In this beginner-level workshop there is a min 3/max 6 students so you are guaranteed personal attention.

It is followed same day by the Lampshade Makeover Workshop -  if you want to have a whole day of lampshade luxury, then you're very welcome to join us for both workshops!

Difficulty

No prior knowlegde, or skills are required.  I'll be taking you step by step through each stage of the process - although it is a little fiddly - I'll be doing my best to make this as easy and fun as possible!

What's included

  • All the supplies you'll need are included (except fabric*).. this includes professional quality adhesive backings, frames, and tools
  • Morning tea (with homemade yummies) 
  • Notes summarising everything you learnt in the workshop, including a list of resources for future purchases
  • Private link to real-time video showing the full workshop process.

What to bring

  • BYO fabric, or purchase on the day*
  • If you have a pair of good fabric scissors please bring them, but no worries if you don't (I have plenty)
  • Please bring an old credit, or store loyalty card (something that doesn't matter if it gets a bit bent)

Fabric

  • BYO FABRIC: All the info you need re. type and qty will be emailed following booking
  • If you'd rather buy here, you can do so on the day with cash - I have a stash of mostly colourful printed fabrics (not many plains I'm afraid), with prices between $10 and $50 depending on what you choose.  (If you've seen something online here on my website that you love, let me know so I can check availability and advise price)

  • Kits are available to purchase so you can turn your lampshade into a pair, or different size, when ytou get home
  • Please either bring cash or your credit card/phone to pay
  • Check out our YouTube channel for lots of tips and tricks to help you prepare for this workshop!

Cancellation

Due to the difficulties of refilling short-notice vacancies in small-group workshops I'm sorry but NO REFUNDS are available.

However - if you're unable to make it you can transfer your booking to a friend or family-member to attend in your place on the day.

If you are sick, and can provide a Drs certificate, a credit will be provided for future workshop.
