Guest teacher, Lisa Super, will be joining us for her amazing Vintage Stitched Shade! This is truly a one-of-a-kind piece that you'll be sure to show case in your home, office or studio. Friends and family will want you to gift them one for sure!
All materials are included in your decadent kits, but you're most welcome to bring in bits that you like from home too! There's nothing like that sentimental piece that your Grandma gave you or that special piece you found at the flea market, that you just didn't know what to do with but couldn't live without.
Please note that each lamp shade will vary from person to person. Lucky for us, that only means every one of these beauties will be oh so charming and special!
Don't hesitate to check out Lisa on her blog (below)...she's quite an inspirational artist!
