Pretty Up a Lamp Shade with Cutouts.

This kind of gives a light show effect. Sorta, I mean, it's not exactly a Kanye style light show, but it does throw pretty patterns onto the wall and ceiling and it's dead easy to make.
I think I've covered the basics here, but if you get stuck (or you're looking for some other ideas on Dirt Cheap Decorating) go here

Step 1 Gather Your Stuff

I used:
a Grundtal lamp base from Ikea
a Skimra lamp shade from Ikea
craft paper
scissor
a craft knife
tape
pencil

Would it be better or worse to cut out the entire thing? Or is it best to leave a bit of it like you have?

Effective, simple, easy, cheap. These are 4 things I look or in an instructable. Great job!

it does look nice but does it spin at all? mabe if you put a roter type thing on top of it horosontaly the rising heat might make it spin.
