Benefits of Our Lampshade Making Fabrics

Drawing on our expertise in the lampshade-making industry, we've carefully curated our fabric range to ensure you can:


  • Create stunning hard and soft lampshades with a variety of patterned and plain fabrics in an array of colours and styles.

  • Choose from different textures and finishes, from plush velvets to natural fibres like linen.

  • Achieve clean, crisp rolled edges, at the top and bottom of your lampshade for a professional-quality finish.

  • Ensure strong adhesion to our Stick It® Self-Adhesive Lampshade PVC range.

  • Enjoy competitive fabric pricing, alongside sourcing your high-quality lampshade-making materials.



Plain Fabric Ranges

Woven specifically for lampshade making, our Chic Fabric Range offers you the opportunity to work with the lampshade industry’s most popular and fundamental textile. Made from 65% polyester and 35% cotton composite and weighing 110gsm, this fabric has a smooth finish and ensures a crisp professional edge to your handmade lampshade, and with 34 colours to choose from, we guarantee there'll be one to suit your colour scheme.





Alternatively, our Cordoba Plain Cotton, in 13 vibrant colours, is 100% cotton, with slightly textured look and feel. Heavier than our Chic Fabric at 150 gsm, this offers the equally excellent professional results when making hard or soft lampshades.

 




Velvet Fabric Ranges

Our exquisite velvet fabric ranges exude luxury at first glance. Sumptuously soft and visually striking, these opulent fabrics come in both rich solid colours and captivating prints, making them ideal for crafting handmade lampshades in various shapes and sizes.

 

Choose a plain velvet from our Supreme Velvet Range, featuring five luxurious jewel tones, opt for a Venetian Velvet offering sophisticated elegance in deep, rich shades like Ruby and Slate or our Supreme Printed Velvet, featuring vibrant digitally printed designs, on rich plush, medium weight velvet.

 






For more information on making handmade velvet lampshades, read our Lampshade Style Guide: Velvet Shades, which offers tips on creating a professional lampshade edge using velvet by extending the width of the kisscut and closing a velvet lampshade seam.




The Naturals Collection

Providing outer texture and surface detail when lit, the Naturals Collection is a selection of slubbed, open weave and organic look natural fabrics, in a variety of neutral tones, such as off white, cream, light brown and beige. This collection provides lampshade makers with an unfailing source of neutral textured fabrics for interesting lampshades.







Chatham Plain and Printed Linen

Our Chatham Plain Linen-Look Fabric combines the natural beauty of linen with the practicality of polyester, resulting in a high-quality, easy-care, 200 gsm material. Its regular raised weave will add texture to handmade lampshades, whilst it’s 80% cotton content ensures a crisp rolled edge finish. Available in six colours – a mix of neutrals and muted pastels – this plain fabric is sure to add simple elegance to your lampshade making.


Using high quality digital printing and a variety of colours, to depict flora, fauna, stripes, animals and fruits for the majority on a neutral linen-look background, our Chatham Printed Linen-Look Range offers the same cotton/ polyester ratio and is perfect for lampshade making, cushions, curtains and homewares projects.
