DIY No Sew Contemporary Lampshades

Hello and Welcome once again!!!!

I would be sharing with you, how I made this No-sew Ribbon Lampshade
with a contemporary dual look......

This was a quick makeover for my dreary old plain lamps.....

Contemporary Lampshade

This is how my lamp originally looked.......

I have two of these, one on either side of the bed......

It really looked nice on my bedside tables, but after using it for more 

than a year, I got bored of its plain look.....

I decided to revamp the look of our bedroom.......

And, decided to begin with the Lampshades :)

Plain Lamp Base

I decided to make a Contemporary Dual Look Lamp.......

The main reason for this decision was that, I have two comforters, 

one black and white, and the other a dark red......

I wanted the look of the lampshades to go with both my beddings......

I used Black Satin ribbons and hot glued them to the lamp in the following 

Criss-cross pattern on two opposite sides of the lamp.........

On the remaining two opposite sides, I just glued them vertically........

The only important tip here is to space the ribbons perfectly.....

A little bit here or there can have distortions in the design.....

It helps to mark the spacings before you start gluing the ribbons.....

Then, I glued Red Satin Ribbons vertically between the vertical Black Ribbons......

This is how the finished Lampshades look.......

Krishna- Bejeweled Artwork

Hello.....

Here, I have a Bejeweled Art done on Krishna....the most loved Indian god....

This type of art is also known as "Shringar Art" in India.....

"Shringar" literally means "Make- up and Jewelry Adornment".

I have used a 16 x 20 Poster print of Krishna and used mixed media for this artwork....

I have individually stuck each and every bead and rhinestone with my own hands....

The "Murli" or the "Flute" is hand- moulded too......

The peacock feather on the crown is real too.....

This is completely a 3D artwork....

This is how, the Framed Artwork looks......

This is the close-up of the crown for you.....

Shringar Artwork- Krishna

It took me a month (3 hrs/day) to finish this artwork......

It was a painstaking job, but the hard work did finally pay.....

The final result blew my brains away.....

It was beyond my own expectations.......

I was making this artwork for my sister's house-warming.....

She loved it so much that it is now, the Focal Wall art in 

her Living room feature wall.....

This and That !!!

Today, I was just browsing through my old photos.....and look what I found!!!!

I didn't even remember I had these photos!!!!!

These are some things I made quite some time back.....

I had totally forgotten about them.....I was just uploading what 

I was making recently......

I think I should keep digging into my old photos often.....

The reason I put all these photos together because, I did not have the 

'in- progress' pictures.....

Here are some things I made......

Look, Enjoy and have Fun!!!!

This is a coffee table I decorated for my sons 3rd birthday....We cut a

cake on this table :)

This is how I used candles on the cake (Cake Topper) for the same birthday......

Yes, It was a Spiderman theme.......

I just use one of my sons toy figurine in front of the candles......

My son loved it!!!!

Cake Topper

This is made on a refrigerator door using a Sticker Making Kit from 

Fevicryl (India)...I think this product is discontinued now......

I made this about 6 years back, and it still looks like new :)

Sticker Art

This was the First Floral Arrangement I did during a festival at home....
It turned out to be gorgeous........I had never thought I could do this....

This is a glass votive holder I had made using glass colors......

This is a vertical Note-Pad that I made.....

It is covered with textured paper and I have made a freehand design of 

a necklace on it.....The photo is not so good, as my camera was really 

not a good one :(

Decorative Note- Pad

This is a pot lamp I made during Diwali a few years back.....

Usually, its filled with wax and turned into a candle, but I preferred to 

keep it empty and as a show piece at that time.......

These are a few clips and a ring I made using floral wire and nylon stockings.....

I gifted them to my little girl-friends :)

Stocking Flowers

This is a vase I painted....I had to show a sample for an order and I used this 

vase.....I gave the vase a silver base coat and then I painted 3 different motifs 

on the same vase.....

This is a Madhubani border on the vase......
