Pleated Lampshade liner repair
Old pleated lampshade cover in great condition, but the liner needed replaced. I replace lampshade liners regularly. It is nice because there is typically no visible difference to the shade, except when the trim is replaced. Over time, the trim, being on the very top of the shade, collects dust and discolors. Sometimes replacing the trim is difficult or not the best idea due to the fact that the shade trim and cover are difficult to match.
Original Pleated Lampshade needing Liner Repair
The original trim on this pleated shade showed signs of age, and was not a hard fabric to match. I used a new shantung shade trim and outlined it with metallic gold soutache.
My customer was kind enough to send me a picture of the restored shade on the original lamp. It is a very pretty lamp and the metallic gold accented the lamp base.
