If you have ever considered making a lampshade or recovering an antique shade you simply can't let go, then this video is for you. Let Isabella Codd, Chez Maison designer show you how to make a lampshade.
I'm with Edward, Finally! a video that that doesn't just cover up an old lamp shade with surface decoration. You actually explain how to make a lampshade from the frame. I have been wanting to recover two lampshades that are on my grandmothers lamps. Now I feel confident I will, with a little practice, be able to accomplish the task. Thank you a thousand times, thank you.
I am a sewist, and I knew that if I could make a covering for myself, there certainly must be a way to make a covering for a lampshade. I will cut off the old fabric and use that as my pattern. Thank you so much for this clear explanation.
Thank you for creating this tutorial, it's very helpful. I have two questions: Could the pattern be cut abutting a bias fold so that there is a single seam, or is the fit better with two seams? And for the inner liner, could you please go into slightly more detail on the curved cut you made to remove additional material to accommodate the size difference? Thank you!
that's brilliant Sir. Bought old book to learn how to make it and now your video help me to understand it how it works. Thank you so much for all your tutorials. Cannot wait for more of the videos :-)
Thank you for the time you put into this video. I bought a wonderful vintage lamp today that has a destroyed shade. I'm removing the old fabric and this was very easy to understand.
