Total Time Needed: 1-2 Hours
Don't let the decorating stop just because the tree is trimmed. You can easily spread some holiday warmth by livening up a plain old lampshade with festive miniature ornaments.
Materials
- Plain white lampshade
- Hole punch
- Small wire ornament hanger
- Miniature ball ornament
- Decorative rickrack
- Clothespins
- Fabric glue
Instructions
1. Start by using a hole punch to create holes about 3 inches apart around the base of a small, plain white lampshade (found at most craft stores for about $10).
2. Thread a small wire ornament hanger through each hole, hook on a miniature ball ornament, then fold the hanger in half to create a closed loop.
3. Once you've hung all the ornaments, use fabric glue to attach decorative rickrack around the shade, using clothespins to hold it in place until it dries.
