Last week, we showed you how to give a thrift store lamp base a quick and easy update but what if it’s not the base that needs help? If you have a lamp with a shade that’s seen better days consider treating it to this easy no-sew makeover!
Woven satin ribbons make for a big-impact lampshade – just choose your favorite colors! For this DIY makeover, you’ll need:
- Drum-style fabric lampshade; shown is a 13-inch shade (shade height is 9 inches)
- Approximately 10 yards 5/8-inch-wide satin ribbon in first color of your choice
- Approximately 10 yards 5/8-inch-wide satin ribbon in second color of your choice
- Hot-glue gun
- Hot-glue sticks
- Tape measure
- Pencil
- Straight pins
When you’re ready to rock and roll with all that ribbon, hit up Midwest Living for the full tutorial.
