I have wanted to create a white-on-white printed pattern lamp shade for a while. I love burnout fabrics and subtle prints that pack a punch in visual texture. I've been holding on to this fabric for a little while until I felt like I had honed my craft enough to do this well. With stripes on a curved lamp shade, it's not always perfect, but I always try my best to make it just right.

At first glance, this is a plain white lamp shade, but once the lamp is turned on - out pops the personality. I like to say that is shade is 'simple by day, party by night'. The stripes and polka dots just come alive and bring a little cheer into a space. The perfect balance of calmness with pleasant surprise.

For fabric scale reference: lamp shade photographed is a 9"D x 9"H shade.

PLEASE NOTE: When checking out, please include three things in the Special Instructions box at checkout.

  1. The HARDWARE DROP height*
  2. Whether the hardware will be on the TOP or the BOTTOM of the shade (most often, for pendant lights the fitter is at the top, and for table lamps the fitter is at the bottom)
  3. (Optional) If you need an UNO FITTER or a nonstandard EURO FITTER SIZE**

*The HARDWARE DROP is how deep the hardware is recessed into the shade as measured from the edge of the shade. It is most commonly between 0"-3", but unlike spider rings, there is no standard height. Every shade can be different as it was designed to compliment the needs of its specific lamp. If you choose the wrong drop height, your shade will not sit at the correct height on the lamp.

For more information about measuring the drop on your current lamp shade, please visit my Drop Height blog post.

**EURO FITTERS are available in three sizes. The most common is the middle size, but there are also small and large euro fitters available. If you aren't sure which size is right for your lamp, here's how to check.

PRO TIP FOR LIGHT BULBS
For optimal performance, choose your bulb based on your shade size and not on what your lamp base can handle.

LEDs emit less heat than incandescent bulbs, but heat output is not the only thing that affects the well-being of your shade. Lumen output can affect how quickly a shade yellows with time.

'Wattage' is the measurement of energy used, and 'lumens' are the measurement of light output. The light bulb's lumen output is how we determine wattage equivalents. For example, a 60W incandescent light bulb and a 60W equivalent LED light bulb use different wattage but both give off a minimum of 800 lumens of light. Lumen output can affect a lampshade over time, and the higher the light bulb wattage/lumen output, the larger shade you should use.

The smaller the shade, the nearer it is to the light bulb, so I recommend not using more than a 40W equivalent on a 9 in. diameter shade.
