A big box

Sometimes we make drums
sometimes we make cones
and sometimes,
we make something a little bit bigger...



A little trim

Sometimes a plain shade, just needs something

A different colour self fold
or a

trim.....

From the Ceiling

Most people buy glass lamps to hang from the ceiling.  Have you ever considered having a lampshade made that hangs from the ceiling?

This shade is 70 cm wide and 35 cm high.

BushLodge Shades

Today, we completed the hanging shades for the Tented Camp at a Lodge in Tanzania.  It took many hours, midnight candles and lots of stress to complete this, as the deadline was so short.  But at last, here it is:
Easy fold to pack and transport
Packed, and ready to go.....

Bead Frame Shade

From time to time, clients ask me to do make something out of the ordinary, and I always try to assist them, because lampshade making is a challenge, and what keeps me going, is the challenge every day. 

So, I got this phone call requesting a lampshade frame to hang beads to it.  After a few emails, and sketches, I figured it out.  And can you imagine how stunning this frame will look with rows and rows of beads in different colours, glittering when the light shines through....

Herewith the frame at different angles.  The outer ring is 40 cm, the middle one 30 cm and the small one 20cm.  The vertical height from the shade ring to the top is about 20 cm, which leave you with lots of centimetres for the length of the different beads.





mmmmm, keep on dreaming....
