What

Participants will not only be going home with their own fabulous, unique shade, but will get a thorough grounding into the art of bonded lampshade making (ie: the fabric is bonded to the stiff lining). 

You can choose to make either a drum shape or tapered (Empire) shape shade in a choice of sizes (S, M, L and XL) - options shown at checkout.

When

In this beginner-level workshop there is a min 3/max 8 students so you are guaranteed personal attention.

• Lampshade supplies, and fabrics are also available to purchase on the day
• Please either bring cash or your credit card/phone to pay

Cancellation

• 14 days or more before the workshop full refund (or credit if you prefer)
• 14 - 7 days before the workshop – 50% refund, or credit
• 7-0 days before the workshop, sorry - No refund
• Workshop tickets are fully transferrable, so if you can't make it - it's fine to pass it on to a friend to come instead
