Our On Demand Courses are hosted on a different platform. Once you purchase the course we’ll be in touch to send you details of how to log in.
What You Will Learn
Whether you plan to make just one or two, start a side-hustle or make lampshades your business, these courses will teach you what you need to know and you'll have really glorious lampshades at the end.
You can either learn Gathered Lampshades with a Balloon lining our double course which adds Pleated Lampshades with a gently pleated lining.
I have taken all of the knowledge amassed from working with students at our in-person courses to make sure that all aspects are covered in-depth. I have filmed everything from different angles and you can stop, start, rewind and even ....... fast-forward if you reach Jedi Lampshade level super-fast.....which of course is my goal for you!!
Getting Started
You'll learn how to create a secure base structure for your frame - binding is the most critical stage of any lampshade.
Linings & Exterior Fabric Treatments
For the Gathered Lampshade you'll be walked through in minute detail how to measure, cut and attach your Balloon Lining, as well as how to make and attach your external fabric and we'll take the same care to show you how to gently pleat your lining and prepare the external Fabric.
Finishing
Finally you'll learn how to finish your shade off with your own material or a trim.
Each chapter comes with both videos and notes to help make the course as easy to follow and as much fun as possible.
The way our Gathered & Pleated course is structured is that you begin with the Gathered Style and follow up with the Pleated as in our experience this is the easiest order in which to learn.
You'll be joining a growing international crowd of Lampshaders who are learning this lovely craft and making their own bespoke creations. If the feedback I've had so far is anything to go by - you'll soon be inundated by friends, family & clients asking you to make them lampshades too.

“I had been searching high and low for an online course on how to make gathered fabric lampshades, so when Minerva Workshop released their own online course, I was delighted! The course is extremely well put together, with clear, professional, informative videos, demonstrated by Lottie, who expertly guides and encourages you through the lampshade making process. The production of the course is very high quality and comes with notes as well as videos, which are useful to refer back to. I am completely hooked now and cannot wait to start my next shade.”
“What an amazing video and learning experience. You are so calm and encouraging in the video it just flows effortlessly. ”
“I was very impressed. The videos are so well produced and organized, it exceeded my expectations. Despite trying to learn on my own over the last couple of months, there is nothing like seeing the steps in action. I only wish I had this instruction from the beginning, it would have saved me so much trial and error.”
“I am so sorry this has taken so long so say how fantastic your little on line course was for me living in Australia. So very easy and clear to follow as I have done all sorts of sewing over the years and now found my passion . Do keep me posted with any other information as you were a great price. I just LOVE lamp shade making”
“I have wanted to learn how to make fabric lampshades for a good while, and was delighted to find such a great online course. It’s lovely to sit and stitch along with Lottie, the instructions are very clear and I am delighted with my new lampshade! The option of buying a kit with supplies is a great one, it gets you stitching quickly. I now know the next three that I would like to make, such a good skill to learn.”
