My Favorite Measuring Trick
This measuring technique requires minimal tools and works every time. Measure your lamp base or any other round surface and get an accurate diameter. Knowing the width of your lamp base is the first step to finding the right lamp shade for your lamp.
- Wrap a string around the widest part of your lamp.
- Measure the string with a tape measure or ruler
- Take that number and divide by pi (3.14) to get an accurate diameter
Bonus tip: if you don't have a string or shoe string, you can use the lamp cord.
