LHB shades

Okay I decided to fix the shades rather than purchase additional fabric.
See how my stripes matched my paint color perfect.  So glad I decided to do this.


It was not hard at all.

I took the shade apart then I cut it down to a rectangle.


Flat you can see it is tapered. (laying flat on my Houston home floor)  You have to cut from all four sides.  I cut one top then mad that my reference point and cut the side.  Making the top corner square.  Using my fabric ruler I just cut the rest of the shade down.


Here they are just waiting for the hops.  (just clipped so you can see that they are now perfect)  I just used the spray adhesive to attach the fabric.  LOVE that stuff.


Holding the hop in place as the glue dries. I didn't want to glue them until I got them to the lake house.  Easier to transport flat.


These are going into a basement bedroom.  They turned out great.

Happy Transforming.
