I decided to use some nice scrapbooking paper for the shade, but I first used construction paper to determine the shape and size that I wanted my lampshade to be. Once I decided, I used this paper to make a template for my lampshade. (If you want to try to make this, let me know and I can post my template on here.) I used double-sided tape to tape two large pieces of scrapbooking paper together and then traced my template on the backside of the paper and cut it out.
Next, I taped the edges together to complete the lampshade and then placed it on top of the ring.
I could have glued or taped the ring onto the shade, but I wanted to be able to replace it if I decide to later.
