This old drum lampshade was so cracked that it had to be duck taped before tearing it down so it would not fall to pieces. I use the original material as a pattern for the new lamp shade and sometimes I have to go to extremes to keep the original from falling apart.
The new cover is Anna Linen, a very nice clean finish. with antique gold soutache trim.
