January 1st seemed a good time to start blogging again. The last month I have been learning to make IQ Lamp shades. Then are really beautiful. Instead of plastic I used thick parchment paper that I have had leftover from a printing job 20 years ago!
IQ Lamp made with 30 pieces.

These can be difficult making the lamp and I would recommend buying the kit. The kits come in a lot of colors, shapes and sizes. The reason I recommend the kits is because the pieces interlock and it is difficult it get them right hand cutting. Another reason is the thickness of the paper you use makes a difference. Here is a link to the IQ lamp shop. http://www.iqlight.com/shop/
If you would still like to do it yourself here is a link to a video on how to make an IQ lamp.
