How to Make Victorian Lampshades | DIY Victorian Lampshade Set

How to Make Victorian Lampshades | DIY Victorian Lampshade Set | I am revisiting an old project today and making two new Victorian style lampshades. Since my first attempt I have been dying to try my hand at making lampshades again and honestly I see myself making so many other one's in the future. Since I am working on renovating my bedroom I thought no bedroom would be complete without a beautiful lampshade set.

I wanted to challenge myself a bit with the color scheme of this project. As much as I want red to be a primary color in my bedroom 1) My last lampshade was red and 2) As much as I love the monochromatic look the vibe I want to go for in my bedroom is a lot more robust I want layers and textures and patterns and I think this warm copper color would complement the decor nicely adding depth and visual interest.

So for that reason (and having a fear of buying unseen fabrics online) I decided to dye my own fabric to the color I had envisioned in my mind. This meant a bit of time trying to find as many non synthetic fabrics and fringe to make my dye job as easy as possible (spoiler alert I still ran into some issues).

In this video I show you all the steps on making these lampshades from the very beginning of taping your wire frame, custom dying fabrics (including synthetics) applying trims and even creating a rosette. These were very simple but a very fun and extravagant accent to add to your home decor. Hope you enjoyed watching.
