You’re on a budget but want to spruce up your home without spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars. Here’s an idea to brighten up your space that you can do yourself: DIY lamp shades. You might not realize how something as small and perhaps insignificant as a lamp shade can change the look and feel of a room.
Enlighten Your Space with these DIY Lamp Shade Ideas
Those old out-dated and not to mention dirty and dusty lamp shades you’ve had for too long are dragging your room down. As nostalgic as grandma’s old lamp shades might be, it’s time for an upgrade.
The fun thing about creating your DIY lamps is that you can truly customize the look you’re going for. Say you’re going for a nautical theme in your son’s bedroom, now’s your opportunity to go all out and find some fun sailor-like fabric to cover your DIY lamps.
Maybe you want to go a little modern, shabby chic, retro, or rustic? Grab a paint brush, stencils, masking tape – things you probably already have at home to update and customize your DIY lamp shades! The opportunities can be endless, and the look you achieve at the end will liven up your space. Here are 34 ideas for you to create a new look with just a lamp shade!
