II CANDLE SHADES AND FRAMELESS LAMPSHADES Before attempting the more difficult task of covering a wire frame, the amateur shade maker may like to try a candle shade--a candle shade without a wire frame, that can be dropped over a shade holder. These shade holders can be bought in almost any department store; they fasten round the candle with a spring clip, which holds in place a rod with a circular wire at the top. The shade is dropped over this ring and supported at a sufficient distance from the candle flame to prevent scorching. In the case of very small shades however, especially if the shape has very little flare, it is safest to use a mica lining, as an impromptu fire at a dinner party adds a little too much to the excitement. These mica linings come in standard sizes and are obtainable at most city department stores. CIRCULAR SHADE The simplest shade to make is one cut in one piece. The seam is made, by over-lapping the ends and joining them, either with glue or patent fasteners, such as split pins. Figure 1 Figure 1 shows the segment of a circle that can be used for a pattern for this type of shade. The flare of the shade depends upon the size of the segment cut from the circle. The proportion shown in the diagram gives a good spread; it is a little more than half and a little less than three quarters of the circle. For a satisfactory size for a shade for a dinner table make the diameter of the flat pattern measure twelve inches, and the circle cut from the centre (which forms the top rim of the shade when made up) Figure 2 three and one-half inches across. Figure 2, gIDEI) shows made shade. Figure 3 shows a four sided shade, cut in one piece; this can also be joined with clips or if an invisible seam is preferred a good mucilage...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LAMPSHADES HOW TO MAKE THEM by OLIVE EAKLE WITH ILLUSTRATIONS. Originally published in 1921. FOREWORD: The purpose of this book Is to make the art of shading lamps and candles a little less of a problem to the amateur craftsman and it is hoped, also, that those who have already had some experience as shade makers, will find some practical hints that will be of value to them. Miss M. L. Morey, who is well-known as a designer and maker of lampshades, has given me the solution to many of the problems that beset the beginner. Of course, the subject is so many-sided that it is quite possible that some point of vital importance to some one particular worker, may not seem to have been given enough attention. Any further details of any phase of shade making, that may be needed, will be supplied gladly upon application to either Miss Morey or myself. Also informa tion as to the where and the how to buy materials will be furnished to the craftsman who is unable to obtain supplies locally. It is suggested that the book be read as a whole, rather than the instructions be used from a single chapter, which, from its heading, ap parently contains all the needed information. To have each chapter complete in itself would have entailed endless repetition, as, for instance, many of the suggestions for paper shades are interchangeable with the hints on silk shade making therefore, the best plan is to read the whole book and note details in each chapter that will be of assistance in the con struction of the planned lamp. It Is taken for granted that the sewing terms used will be understood by the needlewoman who tries her hand at shade maMng and for tunately there are so few technical terms used in the craft that it is not necessary to spatter the pages with explanatory footnotes. It is hoped that the rough diagrams will make clear some of the confusing points. With patience, careful workmanship and good taste, as fine a lampshade as money can buy, can be produced at a fraction of the cost of those offered in the stores. OLIVE EABIJS. Jan., 1921.
