TASTER: How to make a fabric lampshade with Tess Grace from The Arty Crafty Place

Description

The kit that Tess sells is very comprehensive – everything you need except the fabric so if you didn’t want to print your own, then you could use a piece of fabric  that is pre-printed.

However, how lovely to create your own , personal design to compliment your room- adult or child.

Tess takes you through the various stages for block printing, remembering that you need to have the fabric applied to the PVC base before you start to print on it, as this gives you a firmer, better end result.

Once your block printed fabric is dry, you need to add the rings top and bottom; so you need to decide whether or not you want this to be a lampshade or a ceiling fitting.

Then all you need to do is neaten off the top and bottom edges, with the help of the little widget.

We also have some of Tess’s lampshade kits, including the one made in the workshop, in our Shop as well as her other block printing kits  – click here
