- On top, in the middle, you need to make a hole on each half, one hole. Before that, be sure to measure the size of the shade so that the holes made are not large.
- Next, you need to insert the shade and hang it by the lace to the top.
Can do lampshade made of wood. To do this, you will need the following materials:
- scissors;
- Clothespins;
- cartridge;
- bamboo rods, preferably up to 90 cm in length.
- glue for gluing wood.
If you will be using curtains, then you need to remove the bamboo rods from them. Each twig should be rolled into a ring and used a clothespin and glue to connect, glue and let them dry. The next step will be to connect them by crossing with each other. At each connection, apply glue to secure them to the joints. Thus, you should get a ball of twigs. At the same time, at this stage, you need to insert the lampshade, as later it will be inconvenient and almost impossible. Well, it will take a little more time to dry out and the lampshade is ready.

Next, randomly wrap it around the prepared ball, just do not forget to leave room for the lampshade. After the ball is completely covered with thread. It needs to be given time to dry. Then, punch the ball and take it out through the shade hole. The final touch is to insert the lampshade and the lampshade is made.
