Bespoke Lampshades & Restoration Service
Alongside my HARi collection, I also offer bespoke lampshade making and restoration services. Whether you have a particular fabric you love, a tired shade in need of some tlc, or an unusual idea you’d like to bring to life - I’m always happy to work with you to create something totally unique.
With a background in textiles and a love of traditional craftsmanship, each of my lampshades is hand-stitched to ensure durability and a quality that lasts for years to come. I choose to work primarily with second-hand, recycled, and reclaimed materials, in an effort to be as sustainable as possible.
I also create Memory Shades - lampshades that incorporate items or materials that are meaningful to you. This could be a piece of clothing, a special fabric, or a small collection of treasured items. Incorporating these elements into a lampshade is a beautiful way to preserve memories while transforming them into something practical and long lasting.
Pricing
All of my lampshades are hand-stitched, fully lined, and designed to last for years. Sustainability is incredibly important to me and almost every material I use is recycled, reclaimed, or second-hand - with only the occasional fitting or dab of glue being bought new.
