Lampshade Ideas 2:

Ok! Here is the lamp! My Goodwill find! I have several chocolate brown accent walls in my house that I could put it against- or my funky craft/office space. I need some ideas for a crafty DIY lampshade. Maybe something with pictures?? Anyone? Bueller?

I am open to different styles, SHAPES and colors. But it's my fav color- couldn't resist it!

Bueller? Oh I love that movie! I had some ideas for the lamp the other day, but the electric company didn't share my idea for lighting options. It was out for hours, then on for about three (while I was running errands as luck would have it) then out again by the time I returned.

Check out these ideas:
