Looking to create a unique lamp on your desk table or by your bookshelf? Searching for a gift that is personal and homemade yet of the utmost quality? Our UK-made DIY lampshade boxes have everything you need to make your lampshade other than the fabric. Find some fantastic fabrics or wallpaper for your lamp to match or enhance your furniture, cushions and home décor. Ideal for beginner crafters and professional crafters. - EASY TO USE & WITH SIMPLE STEP INSTRUCTIONS: Create a beautiful shade in less time than it takes to go to the shop. Cut your fabric or wallpaper to size and peel the self-adhesive lampshade panel onto the fabric. Then with the strong self-adhesive tape, tack the wire and panel together. Use the tucking tool to fold excess fabric under to complete your lampshade. Simple step by step instructions with pictures are included in the packaging but you can also check out our tutorial videos. - SMART COVER PANEL PREVENTS FABRIC FADE: The fire-resistant PVC panel that backs your fabric has been specially engineered and rigorously tested as a backing for fabric lamps so it will make any fabric added to the panel fire-resistant. The self-adhesive lampshade panel is also anti-static, so it repels dust and anti-yellowing, meaning the light of the bulb won’t affect the vibrancy of your materials used to cover the lampshade. - WORKS WITH UK, EUROPEAN & US FITTINGS: What type of lamp holders will fit this lampshade? Our kits work with UK/European lamp holders or pendant fittings. Our shallow drum lampshade kits fit with standard harp and finial fittings, so they work with most bulbs and bases using the adapter and converter plugs included. When assembled, this lampshade is 40cm in diameter and stands 25cm tall. Already ground-breaking across Europe, our Lampshade Making Kits inspire both imagination and inventiveness. - MADE IN THE UK: Making lampshade creators happy for over 50 years. Our kits have been engineered for quality and are used by professional tradespeople in the soft furnishing industry worldwide. With FAQs as well as ‘how-to’ videos online that can guide you, we also have a strong community of makers all over the world.

Whilst these look better on a floor lamp of a similar diameter base, if your base is smaller, we wouldn't recommned going much lower than a 30cm diameter base, to ensure the lamp is not too top heavy, and prone to falling over if knocked. **Q: Do you sell hexagonal shaped lampshade kits. If so how do I buy a 40cm shade kit?** A: Can’t help sorry **Q: My tool for edges was missing....only just got round to opening box to do** A: Use an old credit card, the tools are rubbish and break anyway. ## Frequently Bought Together - 40cm Lampshade Making Kit use with Pendant Ceiling Lights and Table and Floor Lamp, Drum Circle Shape Needcraft UK DIY use with Fabric, Textile, Wallpaper of Choice. - 30cm Lampshade Making Kit use with Pendant Ceiling Lights and Table and Floor Lamp, Drum Circle Shape Needcraft UK DIY use with Fabric, Textile, Wallpaper of Choice. - 20cm Lampshade Making Kit use with Pendant Ceiling Lights and Table and Floor Lamp, Drum Circle Shape Needcraft UK DIY use with Fabric, Textile, Wallpaper of Choice. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/48233122-40cm-lampshade-kit](https://www.desertcart.at/products/48233122-40cm-lampshade-kit) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-09-01*
