This is a friendly, informal workshop in Whitstable, maximum 6 participants, with Jackie from Brits Love Vintage Interiors shop.
This class is perfect for beginners who want to learn how to make a contemporary lampshade. From choosing fabrics to applying the lampshade laminate to get the best out of your fabric, attaching the rings, and creating neat hand-rolled edges, with no sewing required.
You can make either a 20 cm or 30 cm diameter fabric lampshade which can be used on a lamp base or ceiling pendant. By the end of the workshop, you will take home your very own bespoke lampshade and will have all the skills to create your own original shades!
Workshop costs £40 for a 30cm lampshade and £50 for a 40cm lampshade. This includes all tuition, fabric from a selection of AGF fabrics, lampshade parts, and tools for the class. You can choose from a selection of designer fabrics at an additional cost, or you are welcome to bring your own fabric to cover your lampshade.
You will need half a metre. We recommend using a light to medium weight fabric, either a cotton, poly-cotton, or a linen/cotton mix.
Tickets are non-refundable after booking, but you can rebook on the next available workshop or reallocate your ticket to someone else.
We reserve the right to cancel a workshop if there are fewer than 2 participants or if Jackie is unavailable. Full refunds, or an alternative date if preferred, will be given if we cancel a workshop.

My journey from Consultant Midwife to business owner in Whitstable was driven by a passion for mentorship and a belief in the power of creative wellness. I’ve taken the nurturing side of my midwifery career and brought it into my workshop space, where I focus on the therapeutic benefits of making.
I love teaching the art of transformation—whether it’s 'Sole Revival' shoe gilding, upcycling furniture with Frenchic paint, or lampshade making. Each session is a mindful experience, providing a space to focus, create, and decompress. I’m so proud to share these skills and help others discover the sense of peace that comes with crafting something by hand.
My goal is for you to leave my shop/studio not only with a beautiful creation but with a calmer, more inspired mind.
