"Great Guide. I am a fan of vintage lamps, so I decided to check out Kiri Master’s e-book Old Lamps, New Life: The DIY Guide to Rewiring and Repurposing Vintage Lamps. If you’re wanting to refurbish an old lamp, this e-book is an excellent instruction manual, and Kiri Masters guides readers step-by-step through the repurposing process. The detailed e-book includes thorough instructions, along with helpful pictures and diagrams. Masters also gives the reader safety instructions and a lesson on the anatomy of a lamp’s features, and she explains what tools are needed to get the refurbishing project started. The guide is presented in a cheerful and aesthetically appealing manner. I never knew refurbishing a lamp could look so fun!"

“Should be called Rewiring Lamps for Dummies. Before reading this book, I NEVER would have considered taking on a project like rewiring a lamp. Now that I've seen it all laid out with clear illustrations and explanations, I feel confident I could rewire and update an old lamp that's seen better days. Having this guide to take me step by step through the process will make my lamp project a success for sure.”
- Carole Rains, ilikethatlamp.com Customer, July 24, 2015
I like the idea of refurbishing lamps, but working with electrical wiring scares me.
This is a good thing. We recommend having a very healthy respect for working with anything that conducts electricity. It can cause shocks, fires, and worse. That’s why the book includes a ton of information about safety while working with lamps and wiring. You’ll learn how to identify lamps that could pose a shock hazard, how to ensure safety of your components, and all about electrical polarization.
What if I buy it and don't like it?
We’re confident that the information in the book and extra content will be helpful and inspire you to confidently refurbish your own lamps, but if you read through the whole thing, and still decide it wasn’t for you, we will happily refund your purchase.
So wait, is it a book or a video course?
It’s an e-book that will be available for you to download either as a PDF to keep on your computer, or as an ePub file to read on your digital reading device. You can even print it out!
The beauty of having all this in e-book form is that all of the additional videos and content are linked to directly from the book. Throughout the book you can click through to videos and other useful content to help explain key concepts and techniques.

This is a high-quality metal lampshade ring set for making custom DIY drum lampshades. Making a lampshade is a lot easier than you might expect, and when you DIY you have the freedom to use any color, size and pattern that you like. It just takes a little bit of creativity and an hour of your time to make a totally custom, unique drum lamp shade that you can be proud of.
European fitter lampshade rings are used on lamps with European-style electrical sockets, which are threaded on the outside. They’re primarily found on imported lamps like those from IKEA. These fitters thread directly onto a lamp’s socket, and are held in place by a cap that screws on.
They can be built into the top of a lampshade (for pendant and hanging light fixtures) or the bottom of a lampshade (for sconce, table and floor lamps).
PRODUCT DETAILS:
Pair this item with our Adhesive Styrene and a Tacky Lampshade Glue Kit and make a lampshade you love!

How will my lampshade attach to my lamp’s base?
The Euro fitter lampshade ring sits over the lamp socket. Refer to the third product picture for a visual of how this works.
What’s the difference between a Euro fitter ring and a Spider/Washer ring?
These lampshade rings attach to your lamp in a different way. Euro fitter rings are generally for IKEA lamp, and some Target lamps, while Spider/Washer fitter rings are more common in the United States. Lampshades with Spider/Washer fitters are for lamps with harps.
