Recreate this retro shade using jute

Jute is a light-brown rough fiber made from the stems of a tropical plant that’s used for making clothes and accessories. You must’ve seen it on beachy handbags, wedge sandals, and shopping bags. As it turns out, this material also looks incredible on furniture. Today, you’ll learn how to make your very own jute lampshade with this simple tutorial.

Start by securing your jute strand with hot glue. After you’ve done that, begin wrapping it tightly all the way around your white shade. A standard-sized one will require around a roll and a half of material to be completely covered. You could buy a pendant kit and hang your lamp in your living room or decorate the one on your nightstand.
