I f you have la m ps w ith a lo t of

to solve the p ro blem by using a fla t

th a t takes the p a in t. You m a y even
use w a te r pa in ts on some la m p
shade m a te ria ls .
S ilk o r pleated p a rch m e n t shades
go best on fine bases. S p lit reed,
rough fa b ric s , and o th e r te x tu re d
