HOME RECIPES GIVEN FOR
ATTRACTIVE LAMP SHADES.
Style, simplicity, and light with

Miss Chamberlain gives two reci
cs for attractive shades that are

linen,
ordinary window shade
■loth, Is used for the first. To make
this pleated shade, use one and a
half times the lower diameter of the
wire frame. The depth is made an
Inch more than the depth of the
rame from top to bottom, On each
odge of the shade sew a strip of
ribbon, three-fourths inch wide,
then pleat the material in three-
eighths inch pleats and sew the ends
together.
In the top of each pleat, punch a
hole for the cord which draws the
lampshade into shape. Just below
this row of holes, punch half holes
in the edge of each pleat. ‘ The top
wire of the frame will rest in the
half holes when the shade is set on
the frame.
The second method is to paste
gold or silver paper on a strip of
butcher paper. Then pleat, punch
and mount as in the first shade.
Yellows arc the best colors for
translucent shades, points out Miss
Chamberlain. They absorb less light
than the greens and blues and so
are loss likely to rob the lamp of
the element of cheer it should pos-
sess.
It Is difficult to set down actual
laws about the height of base, and
depth of spread for a shade, says
Miss Chamberlain, but one rule is
this: The depth of the shade should
equal cne-third of the total height
of the shade and base combined. The
lower diameter of the shade should
equal the height of the base. How-
ever, this is only a general" rule,
subject to modifications due to the
contour of the base and shape of the
shade. A good table lamp throws a
circle of light six feet across.
