About this class
In this colorful craft workshop, children aged 6 to 12 create their very own lampshade — individual, imaginative and bright! Whether at a children's birthday party, summer party or as a creative station at a Christmas party: Each child paints and sticks high-quality, translucent paper with colors, patterns and motifs that match their own idea or a specific theme.
Together, we roll the decorated paper into a drum shape and then decorate the edges. The result: A homemade lampshade measuring 20 x 22 cm, which can be used as a shade for a pendant or table lamp — or even as a gift.
In a relaxed atmosphere, with age-appropriate instructions and plenty of room for creativity, children experience a special DIY day with a learning effect. The course is ideal for groups of up to 6 children (larger groups on request) — and ensures proud faces and bright works of art to take away.
What you’ll do in the class
- Introductory discussion: Where should the lampshade light up?
- Material selection: discover patterns, colors & motifs
- Design & paint the paper
- Glue the self-adhesive film
- Shapes & roles of the lampshade
- Decorate the edges with fabric tape
- Joint conclusion with presentation of the works
Who is the class suitable for?
The course is suitable for children between 6 and 12 years
Groups of up to a maximum of 6 children at a time. If you have more than 6 children, I recommend 2-3 sessions. But you can always discuss that beforehand, of course. At an event where a DIY table is to be offered permanently - such as a summer party or a Christmas event - the throughput can of course be significantly larger. I would then offer up to 6 simultaneous workstations at the table and whenever a child is ready, another child can join.
Ideal for children's birthdays, daycare parties, school events, family parties or holiday programs
