3D Flower Lamp Shade
Paper craft ideas are a low impact way to add new colors and textures to your DIY home décor. Bring sassy succulents and fabulous flowers into your home with this quick and charming piece of DIY home décor. The 3D Flower Lamp Shade can be created to fit any lamp in your home, allowing you to transform a boring and bland light fixture into something eye-catching in just a few hours. Consider combining this idea with some matching DIY wall art for a chic and uniform look.
In the Designer's Words: "I am loving everything floral and succulents these days, and while my plants tend to be pretty hardy in the back yard, I wanted to experiment with the paper flowers I have seen all over. I decided to make over a lamp shade and add some greenery, leaves, and flowers for a simple and girly touch to my office. This paper flower lamp shade was fairly easy to make (a one night project) so get your netflix shows lined up, grab some mod podge and a glue gun, and get to work."

Wow! Those few little flowers really made a beautiful difference in this lamp shade. I have a shade that could use some TLC and this is a creative idea. Thanks for the inspiration.

Too adorable. No really, to adorable. There is no way this will fit into any of my home decor without suffering some damage. Little kids love to pull at things like this. Perhaps I can attach smaller flowers to the shade hanging from the ceiling.
