I've been on a mission to update my master bedroom.. including the DIY Headboard, Nightstands and now I thought I'd update my old orange Ikea lamps that have been sitting in my garage.
I thought about purchasing different shades to replace the orange ones but I just couldn't find one I liked.
I went to Walmart to find fabric so I can just cover it up. I also wanted to add fabric rosettes because I'm a girl and flowers are pretty :)
You'll need to trace the lamp shade first. I had this bright large pink poster paper.
Then lay it on your fabric and cut leaving 1 inch around to fold over.
Using spray adhesive, spray the fabric and lay the shades on top. Carefully attach pulling taut (having someone help is a good idea) to avoiding bubbles.
Fold fabric over edges of lamp.
Using the same fabric cut 1 - 1.5 inches on the edge and rip it. Ripping it gives it that pretty frayed look. I also used teal fabric to add a pop of color to the shades.
