πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ Did you know there is a place called Cardiff-By-The-Sea in California?

In 1910, developer J. Frank Cullen began creating a new seaside community on the coastline in California. His wife was from Wales and persuaded him to name it after her hometown Cardiff 🏴󠁧󠁒󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 and so Cardiff-By-The-Sea was born! πŸŒŠβ˜€οΈ

These two shades I finished this week will be on their way from Wales to Cardiff-By-The-Sea on Monday πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ ✈️ Thank you Alison πŸ™

❀️ I love working with this colourful Kaffe Fassett fabric which always makes me smile 😊 This lampshade in a 40cm oval shape is leaving for its new home in Aberystwyth today 🏴󠁧󠁒󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 It also now comes in a different colourway, perfect for (dare I say the β€˜A’ word…) autumn πŸ‚!!

I’ve also been experimenting with this tall conical shape which gives elegance to those areas with limited space, ideal for nooks or bedside tables. Can be made in any of my fabrics (or yours) 🦚

I’ve had a lot of interest in my tiered lampshades which are handcrafted to become the focal point of any room. The layered design creates depth, elegance, and a luxurious look, whether hung as a ceiling pendant or paired with a lamp base.

➑️ The best part? Every two or three tiered lampshade can be handmade in any fabric of your choice. Whether you love bold botanicals, timeless florals, calming neutrals, contemporary prints, or luxurious velvet, I’ll create a shade that’s perfectly tailored to your home 🩡

🌺 This fabric combination was chosen by a lovely local lady in Aberystwyth and is off to its new home this week🏠

Message me or email to discuss your perfect combination and let’s create a lampshade that’s uniquely yours πŸ™‚
