Lampshade Printing and Making Workshop

Hand print and make your own fabric lampshade



6 hours Class size 1 to 12 guests       £100 (PayPal Pay in 3 available)

Ever wanted to create your own lampshade? This workshop combines the art of block printing with the craft of lampshade making, no prior experience needed!
Morning Session: Block Printing
The day begins with a full demonstration of block printing techniques. You’ll have time to experiment with various designs and colours, practising your skills and building confidence. Once you’re ready, you’ll start working on a design concept, creating test pieces of fabric to refine your chosen pattern.
Afternoon Session: Lampshade Making
After a break for lunch, you’ll move on to printing your final fabric piece for the lampshade. Once the fabric is dry, you’ll learn how to attach it to a lampshade panel and transform it into a beautiful drum shade for a lamp or ceiling fitting. We’ll guide you through professional finishing techniques to ensure a polished result.
If time allows at the end of the day, you can choose an additional item to print, such as a tea towel or tote bag.
Join us for a creative and hands-on experience, and leave with a stunning handmade lampshade to brighten your home!
