Vintage lamp recreated with Victorian style lamp shade

This is a wonderful vintage lamp that I refinished, rewired and created a handsewn Victorian style lamp shade for. The techniques I used for creating the lamp shade include hand stitching, hand beading and a little fabric glue. I love to use Vintage fabrics and trims if I can find them. Many of my creations start with a vintage fabric or trim that I have fallen in love with and the whole project is based on it.

Pattern or design used: My own design - Michelle Tomlinson
