One of my favorite Pinterest boards is my Lamp Makeovers board, where I’ve been pinning unique DIYs for both lamp bases as well as lampshades.
Recently, I shared 10 lamp bases made with interesting materials.
And today I’m sharing…
29 Creative Lampshade DIYs!
These lampshade transformations range from quick to time-consuming, from simple to complex, and from vintage style to modern. I’ve chosen these DIYs to highlight the diverse array of materials you can use for your own lampshade creations!
