easily and they mostly come in plain ivory paper.\u00a0 This instruction will help you customize them or fix them if they are ripped.<\/p>\n<p>I purchased this Sore paper lamp shade from Ikea AS IS department for less than $3.00.\u00a0 After leaving it in the box at the business not sure how to customize it, the next time I went to pick it up I noticed some roaches had left their droppings on it.\u00a0 When I went to clean it, it began to rip.\u00a0 I had to find a quick solution.\u00a0 I decided to use some mod podge and paper napkins to fix it.\u00a0 I searched for some paper napkins but I did not find any I liked.\u00a0 Then the thought came &#8220;why not use some paper patterns?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bright idea!\u00a0 I had some old Simplicity\u00a0 paper patterns for a skirt in the attic and I went and got it.\u00a0 Follow these steps to customize paper lamp shade;<\/p>\n<p>Items needed<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Mod podge (matte finish)<\/li>\n<li>Brush<\/li>\n<li>Paper patterns or front layer of paper napkins<\/li>\n<li>Water<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>Instructions:<\/ul>\n<ol>\n<li>Put the metal frame into the shade so that it is stretched open.<\/li>\n<li>Rip some of the patterns or napkins into smaller pieces<\/li>\n<li>Pour some mod podge into a disposable cup and for each half cup of mod podge, add 2 table spoonfulls of water.<\/li>\n<li>Starting from the top, apply mod podge with the brush to a small section of the shade.<\/li>\n<li>Place a piece of the pattern or napkin on the glue and apply more mod podge on the piece and surrounding areas.<\/li>\n<li>Place another piece slightly overlapping part of the previous.<\/li>\n<li>Apply more mod podge\u00a0and repeat the process, covering the lamp shade with the pattern or napkin.<\/li>\n<li>When you are about two thirds done, stop and allow it to dry completely.<\/li>\n<li>When dry, turn the shade over and continue the process from the bottom to where you left off slightly\u00a0overlapping as you go.<\/li>\n<li>Allow to dry completely and you have a new lamp shade in your choice of color and design.<\/li>\n<li>Please note you can easily fold your new lamp shade to store away when you want to and it well reopen any time you want to use it again.<\/li>\n<li>Enjoy.\n<p><div id=\"attachment_674\" style=\"width: 160px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
