DIY LAMP SHADE- I LIKE THAT LAMP!

March 10, 2015 By Aniko 15 Comments

DIY lampshade with I LIKE THAT LAMP KIT-

I LIKE THAT LAMP!

You guys! Today I am going to show you something brilliant. Have  you ever dreamed of making your own lampshade?A custom one using your favorite fabric?

I LIKE that LAMP is all about making your own, stylish lamp shade that fit in to your design style.

Lamps can dress and change a room instantly. I have so many shades sitting in the attic and I love switching them around in different rooms, but I really never made my own shade until I came across this fantastic kit. As soon as I learned about this awesome kit, I knew that pretty leftover fabric will be gone soon.

Remember that pretty watercolor flower fabric I used for my earring and jewelry holder? Yep- I still have some. In fact I had exactly enough to create two of these gorgeous drum shades.

I found this piece of fabric last year on a clearance table in a fabric store. Just simply looking at it makes me happy every time. The colors the watercolor…not sure what it is but I LOVE everything about it.

Last year I shared a tutorial of how I DIY-ed this lamp. Well, I was in awee when I DIY-ed it but there is no doubt that this shade was a bit small for that lamp base.

 Once I learned about how to measure the lampshade to perfectly fit the lamp base from this guide , I knew that I need to change my tiny shade on my lamps in the bedroom.

My bedroom….gahhh…still has not been reveled yet. It will soon hit the blog though. Once I figure out my gallery wall it will be done. 🙂

So back to the kit.

The kit contains everything that you need to create your own modern lampshade. Using your own fabric or paper will allow you to create a shade per your design.

Kit contains

-Adhesive styrene sheet

-Molding stick

-Lampshade glue

-Top & bottom lampshade rings

-Binder clips

-Illustrated, step-by-step instructions

The instructions are so simple that anyone can follow.

The height and diameter dimensions are fully customizable for your lamp base, read through this quick quick guide

The kit can be purchased at Amazon

Putting it together was super easy. I needed an extra hand but it was a fast and quick project.

      Amanda that frame is from IKEA but it’s been a few years when I got it. It’s a big, deep chunky frame and I love it☺️
