How to Make Lampshades - wrapping or binding a lampshade Frame using cotton India tape 

This was excellent teaching. Thank you. I hope to create my own gathered lampshade some day (sooner rather than later). Your vlogs are very inspiring 🧵✂️💡

Thank you for this incredibly clear demonstration!

Excellent video thank you! I live in the USA and India tape does not exist here. I tried Joann, even Amazon but i had to settle for twill tape. So now that I have watched your video I will start wrapping my frame. You made everything so clear!

More than helpful !! Thank u so much 💗💗✨✨🙏🏼

Hi, there. I so love your work! I live in the USA. Can you recommend American types of products that we can substitute in order to follow your instruction? Do you ever travel to the USA or know about similar products like lightweight cotton twill tape? Cotton India Tape just isn't avail here. I am on my first lampshade and trying to find support in my quest to recover a first lampshade, a task that is almost extinct, here. Seems like most would let it die than give up the instruction of passing on the light. I am just looking to create good work and light. This art is clearly a dying one unless you appreciate beauty. Best to keep it alive and thriving!

Yes, originally lampshade frames were wrapped using scraps lining fabric cut on the cross. Cotton India tape is a modern alternative.

Do you have a DVD i struction available? Or online classes? I've always wanted to learn to make lampshades and can't find any information.

Is there a noticeable difference between the cotton India tape and cotton twill tape that I can find readily in the US?

Can you use biased tape if you don't have India tape?

how do you add a liner?

What about the struts?
