Hi Blis,

What type of shades will you be making? Paper/cloth? Stained-glass? Metal work?

You may want to start here at work your way closer to Chicago:

Ed Gein was doing some "unusual" lampshade work, but hes gone now. Sorry.

Not for nothing everyone, but is this the weekend to dredge up old posts? This sucker is 2 years old, also!! From a friend of Serenity, it seems, who has only posted twice.

My dad got a lamp that had a shade that actually rotated and cast shadows of a train moving down the track.
