So clever! It's like a scarf for a lampshade!

Although I like the idea of updating a lampshade (maybe I should run before I say this). I think that one is a horror. Runs and hides lol

I have to agree but the basic idea is cute

Here's an even easier one. We took 2 lamp shades and zipstripped them together to make an hour glass shape. My daughter studditized a piece of ribbon the cover the edges where the 2 shades touch in the middle of the hour glass shape- and You're done- The whole project too less then 20 minutes- cost us 2.00 for the shades- scrap ribbon and some studs. A perfectly pink match for her room. best part- when she decides she wants two lamps we simple take the shades apart. It's easy to dust too.

Too funny, I agree too with it being a horror
