How to Make a Lamp Shade Better
Here are easy instructions on How to Make a Lamp Shade Better. I bought this lamp for my daughter’s room and wanted to dress it up a little.
Being the cheapskate I am, five bucks was my limit on this do it yourself project. So I bought a $3.99 roll of hot pink ribbon and a butterfly and came up with this.
Materials Needed:
- Lamp Shade
- Ribbon
- Hot Glue Gun
Simply wrap the ribbon in a criss cross pattern and use hot glue to secure it along the edges of the shade. Embellish it with a butterfly or rhinestones. It looks great both on and off!

What a great idea!! I never would have thought of that! I might try this with a thinner ribbon. I like the butterfly tough as well.
You can also try adding trim to either the top, bottom, or both!

Thank you!
