Holly, Jolly Lampshade



Total Time Needed:
1-2 Hours


Don't let the decorating stop just because the tree is trimmed. You can easily spread some holiday warmth by livening up a plain old lampshade with festive miniature ornaments.

Materials

* Plain white lampshade
* Hole punch
* Small wire ornament hanger
* Miniature ball ornament

* Decorative rickrack
* Clothespins
* Fabric glue

Instructions

1.

Start by using a hole punch to create holes about 3 inches apart around the base of a small, plain white lampshade (found at most craft stores for about $10).
2.

Holly, Jolly Lampshade - Step 2 Thread a small wire ornament hanger through each hole, hook on a miniature ball ornament, then fold the hanger in half to create a closed loop.
3.

Once you've hung all the ornaments, use fabric glue to attach decorative rickrack around the shade, using clothespins to hold it in place until it dries.
