The right lampshade can make any lamp as decorative as it is functional. You can turn plain lampshades into unique, embellished lampshades by dressing them up with a few simple materials.

You can start with an existing lampshade or purchase a new lampshade from a home-interiors store. Lampshades are inexpensive and come in a variety of shapes and sizes. When choosing your lampshade, remember a tried-and-true rule: For visual balance, the shade should be one-third to one-half the height of the base and at least twice as wide as the widest part of the base.

In this project, a plain lampshade receives a clever dress-up with a simple fabric skirt that will add soft color to any room. When selecting the fabric for the skirt, pick a color that will complement your lamp base.
