If you want a quick, easy and cheery update to a lampshade, think about adding some quirky embellishments.
Here are a few ideas & tutorials showing you how to do just that. Most of these ideas are reversible, so you can change your look as the mood hits. Victoria from A Subtle Revelry added tassels to her pendant lampshade for an easy and fun update.
Bright and cheery does it with this Pom Pom Pendant, again from A Subtle Revelry.
Glue silk flowers to a shade like this lampshade from Lunch Lady Vintage on Etsy.
This Paper flower lampshade from Aunt Peaches used paper flowers glued onto a shade. The candy-striped bias tape to finish off the edges gives it an extra kick.
Legging-covered lampshades from Vintage Revivals are truly out-of-the-box thinking and are easy to change out as you update your color scheme.
