. . . Washi Tape Lamp Shade . . .


Well, we are more than halfway through Wacky for Washi Tape Week.  I swear I could just keep going and going with project ideas but I promise I won’t.  I don’t want to wear out my welcome with my readers.

Today I did a Washi Tape Lamp Shade.  I know that sounds a bit wacky but it turned out great and added that little something extra to my green bedside lights.  I love these super simple projects that pack a lot of punch.

 All you need is a lamp shade and some Washi Tape and a few glue dots or a touch of fabric glue.  I just dusted my lamp shade really well so it was nice and clean and then started to run the tape right along the bottom edge.  Every few inches I put a glue dot directly on the tape to add a bit more hold.  I found it best to do each side of the shade with 1 piece of tape versus the entire shade with one piece.  It does make for a seam at each corner but it's super easy to match the pattern up so you'd never know there was a break in the tape.
