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 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)

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)

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.

Following booking an info sheet will be emailed to you with all the details about our location, what to bring and more.  If you have further questions please don't hesitate to contact me via the Contact form.
