To view this file, you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader- a free download is available HERE2. Trace the lampshade pattern onto the sheet of vellum. Cut the straight ends and the inner curve using plain scissors with decorative blades.
2. Punch designs about 1" (2.5 cm) from the lower edge, spacing the designs evenly.
3. Apply a thin line of glue (a glue pen works well for this) to one straight end. Lap the other end over the glued end, forming the shade.
4. Secure the votive candle and set the lampshade atop a wine glass
Now, this yet again another way to save $$$ for making an elegant reception centerpiece idea on your wedding. There are lots of bulk wine glass store to buy a wine glass, these can also be a favor for your guest on each table. I think this is a winner.(via: save on craft)
