Kiri over at I Like That Lamp says, “I had a gorgeous ombre pink silk blouse that never really fit that well. Not being able to stand the thought of throwing or giving it away, I did what any normal person would do…. made it into a lampshade!”
To do that, she purchased a lampshade kit which-get this-lets you turn any piece of natural fiber into a lampshade. “That means a ‘past it’ piece of clothing could potentially be upcycled into a lampshade,” Kiri notes. She cut up the silk blouse and followed the kit directions to make a gorgeious lampshade that has a beautiful rosy glow when the lamp is on. The ombre effect is particularly gorgeous on this.
