This is so impressive that you were able to do it yourself. I had no idea it was so hard to find pleated lampshades in the store. Beautiful DIY project!
I didn't think it'd be difficult either! I think needing a certain size made it harder too. Thank you!! ❤️

🔔🔔ANNOUNCEMENT 🔔🔔Hey everyone! Since this project, my love for pleated lampshades have not gone away. I've been loving the more "gathered" pleated lampshades lately and created a new DIY that you can check out here: th-cam.com/video/AFr_2k0cK4A/w-d-xo.html
I think they are pretty but my home gets too dusty, so they'd probably be gathering dust in a matter of weeks or months.
Yes I think they cute 🤗
@@aalegalfocus I haven't even thought about dust gathering on there 😂
@@simplifyrhome I think so too!
Never thought much of them, but they definitely add to the dynamic of any room. (:
I've seen your IG story last night and first thing for this morning was to watch this video. Love the result, great job 🥰
Thanks so much!! 🥰I'm so happy with how it turned out ❤️
Oh wow!!!! Thats so coool!!!!! I loved
Thanks so much!! 😊🥰
You Have the Best patience!

Thank you!! haha it was my first time learning about it too :)
Perfect
Thank you!
I’ve been looking for lampshades like this and they are so goddamn expensive! So glad you made this video
Exactly why I DIY'd it (: Thanks so much for watching!
Woooowwwww!!!!!!!
Wow!! Loving it. I was thinking about doing something like this. How did the hot glue hold up through the years? I’m afraid that the heat could damage it
o my goodness!!! i saw leahfieldnotes do something similar and i'm simply amazed :O
Thanks Mary!! ❤️❤️
I really love the colour and the pleats, its so beautiful. Can you please tell me what it is that you sprayed on the fabric.
Thanks so much! it is Aleene's fabric stiffening spray so that the pleats stay put
See you Ms. Eunice!
Great tutorial
How do you measure the length of the fabric before you start?
Thank you! I used 6ft of fabric for my 14" diameter lamp shade. I would suggest measuring the circumference of the widest part of your shade and at least doubling that.
OMG it came out soo nice! do you recommend having a thicker cloth? or would a thinner one work as well
Thank you! Thicker cloth for sure! When the light is on, things like hot glue marks can show through so a thick clothe will cover that and look more luxurious :)
I am totally doing this-thank you for sharing!! Would you have gone with a thinner material, or was the linen a good choice? Thank you again :)
Thanks for watching! The thick material I got required A LOT of fabric stiffener, but I like how it looks high quality :)
wow looks very cool! love it :D how did you measure the lenght of the fabric?
Thank you!! I would start with at least 2x longer than the circumference. It really depends on how big your pleats are - I started with the full length of how much I bought because I wasn’t sure and ended up using all of it! Hope that helps(:
Your lamp shade is beautiful. My lamp shades are almost 30 years old and the fabric is crumbling. I have been trying to find a replacement shade for 2 years. As you mentioned, it can be costly to replace lamp shades. Replacing the shades for my 2 lamps would cost $75.00 to $100.00 each and they are hard to find with a 21-22" base diameter. I am not crazy about what I have found so far. I don't want to buy new lamps because it would be hard to find something I like that would go with my older furniture. I am going to try your procedure. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much! That would be amazing to extend your lamp life with this DIY and save the costs on getting new shades. Wishing you good luck on the project 😊
Fb marketplace is awesome!!
It is!!!!
OMG!!!!!!!!!
did the shape maintain itself one year later? turned out so great!!!
Hi! Yes it did 😊 Thank you!
Thats beautiful idea, i wondering what kind of fabric is that? I mean the spesific name, i hope i also can do that
Sorry, I can't remember but it was quite thick and had stitching like canvas (not as thick as canvas though!) hope that helps(:
Books as support Yes!
how long is the material that is going around the lamp shade? How did you come up with how much fabric you need to go around with the pleats?
Hi, I would start with at least 2x longer than the circumference. It really depends on how big your pleats are - I started with the full length of how much I bought because I wasn’t sure and ended up using all of it! Hope that helps
Hello, just wondering how you figured out how much fabric you would need for each lamp shade? Is there a formula for example 4” of fabric per 1” top circumference or something like that?
Hi, I would start with at least 2x longer than the circumference. It really depends on how big your pleats are - I started with the full length of how much I bought because I wasn’t sure and ended up using all of it! Hope that helps(:
👍
Do you think a less thick fabric would be better? Worse? Any other changes or non-changes you feel strongly about after living with the lamp shade for a while? Do you think stitching the lampshade onto the base shade was possible?
The only thing I’d do differently is just ensure that the lines are more evenly spaced as I’m hot gluing the shade on, but besides that - the shade is still in great condition. You could definitely sew if that’s your preference, but because the fabric was pretty thick, hot glue sufficed. Less thick fabric would be easier to stiffen but might show the hot glue through especially if it’s light in color. The thicker, the more generously you’ll need to spray the stiffener (it should feel soaked) Thanks for watching 🥰
@@Euniceathome I’ll have to try this and let you know how it goes :)
Good luck!!
I think some large rubber bands would help hold the fabric in the pleats. Or maybe some clips.
LOVE that idea!! Thank you :)
I hope this doesn't get lost in your notifications, I know you said you got the fabric from the utility fabric but is it canvas or muslin? You have definitely inspired me to make my own twist on the trend.
I wish Id taken a photo of the label but I’m pretty sure that it’s canvas! definitely not muslin. Awww thanks so much 🥰 good luck with your DIY!!
Would love to know the mathematics of
how you got 2 yards for the length. Just have my own bigger lampshade and trying to figure out how much I need to cut.
Your shade looks beautiful!
Hi, I would start with at least 2x longer fabric than the circumference. It really depends on how big you want your pleats - I started with the full length of how much I bought because I wasn’t sure and ended up using all of it! Hope that helps and thanks for watching 😊
Красотка!
What did you spray on the fabric ?
Fabric stiffener! amzn.to/3uEwOBc
How do you know much fabric you’re gonna need for the lamp you’re using? Let’s say it’s 10 inches around. How much do you need to make sure it goes all the way around?
Hi, I would start with at least 2x longer than the circumference. It really depends on how big your pleats are - I started with the full length of how much I bought because I wasn’t sure and ended up using all of it! Hope that helps 😊
Great result, BUT, it would have also been useful to provide the calculations used for the amount of fabric required to accommodate the pleats.
Do you need fabric glue or can I use hot glue only?
Hot glue works but I recommend working with a thicker fabric that the glue texture wouldn’t show through!
@@Euniceathome I see. Thanks for replying
I wish you had explained how to calculate how much fabric is needed depending on the measurement of the shade 😩
Hi, I totally should've! I would start with at least 2x longer fabric than the circumference. It really depends on how big you want your pleats - I started with the full length of how much I bought because I wasn’t sure and ended up using all of it! Hope that helps and thanks for watching 😊
Thank you so much, I appreciate it. Will be trying this very soon. Wishing you all the best ❤️
I think it’s easier if u it I like it it’s more fuller
Whats metarial to use?
Do you mean for the fabric? I got a thick cross stitched linen like fabric. Anything works but I'd recommend something thick if you're using hot glue so that the glue marks don't show through!
2 yards!
After work
You just saved me $60
That makes me so happy! :)
I just made this, sadly it didn't fit my shade. You need to account for the diameter at the top of the shade too, not just the bottom. Bummer!
Awww I’m sorry it didn’t fit 😢 Thank you for sharing your learning 🥰 Hope you’ll get to try it again!
@@Euniceathome Maybe it’s bottom+ top and then double it?
@@daniellemartin3509 That could work! oh I just realized you wrote diameter above, I doubled the circumference for mine! i really hope I didn't say diameter in the video 😅

It would be so much easier if you sewed the edges on a sewing machine….just try next time…I made them with fabric coated wallpaper in the 70s……
Wow yours sounds beautiful and that’s a great idea! I’m actually planning to learn to use a sewing machine soon :)
