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.

Bespoke berry red and pink geometric handmade lampshades

Here are a couple of large lampshades I knocked up over the weekend for a lovely customer over in Germany.

They are 40cm in diameter and 30cm in  height

. 

Tagged with the 'Detola & Geek' custom labels so that you know it's the real thing!

 

Do you think it's weird I wish them safe journey as they are sent out on their shipping travels? I always want my handmade lampshades to reach their final destinations in one piece. Touch wood that has been the case every time :-)

Just wanted to quickly share a batch of lampshades I made for another lovely customer

As the saying goes, a pictures speaks a thousand words. I'll let you be the judge.

Custom/ bespoke orders are always welcome using your fabric , mine or sourced on your behalf.
