This hand painted hand stitched amazingly adorable lampshade is...


a clear cut true DIY project through and through.

When Mary discovered a like minded Anthropology fabric lampshade for $600, she desired to recreate her own.

The stripes were layed out using painter's tape on oatmeal coloured felted wool, then painted.
