The smaller piece is for extra support, so the lamp wont sag in the middle.

oh ok thanks. i thought so, but wasnt sure. just finished mine last night. doesnt look as good as yours (just used various paper i had laying around so it doesnt all match....and some of the shapes got cut off on the edge of the full page print, so i had to improvise), but i used 8 LEDs, so it's brighter.
