In this episode of The Mind of Christine McConnell, the Martha Stewart of macabre crafting, recovers a rotted 100-year-old lambshade that she found on eBay.
Never one to shy away from the most painstaking way of doing something, Christine hand-stitches the whole thing. Also true to her Gothic and macabre sensibilities, she needlepoints a deadly-looking spider to the shade.
There are many useful tips in here on basic shade restoration, fabric dying, working with lace, hand-stitching piping, embroidery, and more.
