FAQ's

I don't have any suitable fabric, can you provide it?
No problem! I have an extensive supply of remnants to browse (may incur an additional fee).

I am not very creative, will I be able to do it?
Fear not, I will guide you through the process one step at a time and am on hand to assist with any of the trickier sections.

Can I make a different size/shape shade?
Of course - I offer different options at each workshop so check the details carefully before signing up. Once you have learnt the process you can make as many different shades as you like at home!

Don't the candle shades catch fire?!

Caution and common sense must be exercised but for peace of mind the shades are lined with a flame retardant liner. We advise only the recommended candles be used and NEVER leave candles unattended.  If you are at all concerned we have a brilliant LED alternative you can use!
