Handmade Lampshades Book: First freebie of the year!

Are you like me, you enter a giveaway, do all that is required to possibly win and then forget about it the next minute. This is one of those instances!

I did that last month, totally gave it no other thought!

An then ...... I won!!! I won a copy. So "fantabulous" !!! :-)

Happy coincidence that it arrived, a few days ago, on the day I was so bugged down with the dreaded "lurgy"! Urghhh.

When you run your own business, it is  a continuous learning process. And I love it. Gotta keep the "grey matter" ticking so to speak.

Thanks Needcraft, I can't wait to jump right into this book. 

Keep your eyes peeled for some new designs y Detola and Geek coming out in 2016.

I make colourful African inspired lampshades, home décor & gifts. My designs are typically bold, geometric, retro & sometimes geeky too! I do work on custom orders using my fabrics or ones supplied by you to match your interiors.

Lampshade Making workshop by Detola and Geek

Here are some of the pictures from my last lampshade making workshop about 2 weeks ago at Hearts and Craft in Walkern Village, Hertfordshire

A couple of the lovely ladies I taught how to make lampshades at my last workshop. As you can see they really got stuck in! 

 One of  my students decided to add a bit of trim to jazz up her toadstool print lampshade

I think it's safe to see they were happy with their own professionally finished handmade lampshades. (someones camera-shy) 

Will be releasing more dates soon at 'Hearts and Craft' in Walkern, Hertfordshire as well as some other venues (possibly in London) in the very near future.

I also teach individual / 1-2-1s and lampshade making parties like an alternative hen night/ birthday celebration / gift for her etc. If you are interested in hosting a party where I come to you please click here for more info https://www.detolaandgeek.com/workshops
