    Very easy and she explains it perfectly. Lampshades are stupidly expensive in lamp stores.

    It sooooo much easier if you put the lampshade on something bigger like a paint can…..or a butter churn….it won’t jiggle so much…..you give great directions

    That turned out just beautiful, I love, love, love that fabric! You sure are good at explaining how to do things and I have been wanting to learn how to do this and have watched several videos but they always involved sewing, which unfortunately I never learned to do. Thank you!

    • @MimzyandCompany

    Best tutorial I have ever seen for this! Thank you!!!! May I ask, what if my lampshade is tapered slightly (smaller diameter at top than bottom)?

    • @MimzyandCompany
      @MimzyandCompany  22 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thank you!!! you just have spread the fabric strips farther at the bottom and closer at the top.

    Fantastic video you have inspired me to do this, one question what was the thing you used to make the edging strip you pulled it through something ive never seen before ?

    • @MimzyandCompany
      @MimzyandCompany  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you. It’s called a bias tape maker.

  • @LindaHastings-yq6ze

    Hi. I watched your video and agree that it's the best one. So, I made my first shade today for a small lamp. The only thing I didn't like was the finish at the top. I put the band around the top no problem. But I could see where I cut the fabric at the top of the shade. I would like a more finished look. Is there an additional step that could be added to cover that? I would like to make more, but I need a solution for this. Thanks. Greetings from the great state of Georgia!

    • @MimzyandCompany
      @MimzyandCompany  13 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thank you. I think you could make the binding a little bigger and then open it up to enclose the top.

  • @54sherryj
    @54sherryj หลายเดือนก่อน

    Great tutorial! Very easy to follow on how to make the pleats for a lampshade. I'm just wondering, what tool did you use when making the trim for the top and bottom?

    • @MimzyandCompany
      @MimzyandCompany  หลายเดือนก่อน

      thank you. I used a binding maker. I have a link for it in the description.

  • @crawf313
    @crawf313 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    12:42 Thanks for your video!! I'm wondering if it would create a clean look to "sandwich" the shade inbetween both sides of the bias tape? So one side of it goes inside the lamp shade. Is there a disadvantage to doing that?

    • @MimzyandCompany
      @MimzyandCompany  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      No, no disadvantage other than it's more work. It would probably look very nice.

    What do you do if the lamp shade is all broken. Can you do this with just the wire of the shade?

    • @MimzyandCompany
      @MimzyandCompany  3 วันที่ผ่านมา

      only if the shade has ribs that go between the top and bottom hoops. know what i mean? a lot of shades don't have these.

  • @nvaru81
    @nvaru81 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Will this method work with all shapes of lampshade?

    • @MimzyandCompany
      @MimzyandCompany  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes. But if you have a bell shaped shade it’ll end up flat. And if you have a square or rectangle you may need to cut 4 pieces wider to go around the corners.

  • @dangalek289
    @dangalek289 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I forgot to as you the last time i messaged you, how do you calculate how many strips you need if you want to do what you are doing in this video 🤔

    • @MimzyandCompany
      @MimzyandCompany  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      that's a good question. I just guessed at this attempt. But after doing this project I know that it took about 1/2 yard of decorator fabric(54" wide). Depends upon the size of the shade though...I'm about to do a few more shades...I'll let you know.
