ONE-TO-ONE TUITION
3 DAY LAMPSHADE MAKING MASTERCLASS
INCLUDING THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO STARTING A LAMPSHADE MAKING BUSINESS
With traditional home aesthetics on the rise, I am thrilled to be offering this 3-day masterclass, which was created to meet the ongoing demand for the tailored, pleated and gathered lampshades. Ideal for those looking for an insight into the world of lampshade making, this course will teach you to make a range of classic lampshades. This course will give you two options to choose from:
Option A : Make one traditional and two modern lampshades
Option B: Make two traditional lampshades
Traditional lampshades include pleated lampshades, gathered lampshades and tailored lampshades. You have a choice of making either a balloon lining or a pleated lining. All traditional lampshades are finished with a hand-sewn self binding trim.
Modern lampshades include drum and empire card lampshades.
Whether you want to learn the craft as a hobby, or plan to launch your own lampshade making business, this course will give you what you need to get started. By the end of the workshop, you’ll take either two traditional lampshades or two modern and one traditional lampshade home to add the perfect touch to your interiors.
During this in-depth workshop, we’ll also talk about how to turn your new skills into a business. I’ve worked with students who have gone on to great success running craft businesses, and I love to celebrate and support makers taking their first steps into this world. Having the right knowledge and assistance at the start of your journey can make all the difference to your business. Across the 3 days, I’ll give you an insight into the fundamentals of running a lampshade making business. We’ll discuss anything from creating a lampshade collection, how to price, selling wholesale, selling to retailers, finding your ideal clients to marketing and the importance of branding.
You have total flexibility over your masterclass sessions, and can take three consecutive days, or book multiple sessions spread out to fit around your schedule. For all 1-2-1 tuition workshops, we will work with you to create the best session plan possible. Whatever you hope to gain from this course, just know that I am looking forward to meeting you and sharing my skills and experience to help you reach your goals.
