1. Measure the ribbon around the base of the lampshade and cut to length, allowing 5 cm at each end.
2. Thread the safety pins along the length of the ribbon approximately 1cm apart.
3. Thread 3 beads onto each safety pin.
4. Place the ribbon around the base of the lampshade and pin in place. Use all-purpose glue and glue the ribbon to the shade. The ribbon should overhang the bottom of the shade so that the safety pins can hang properly. Leave to dry.
5. To ensure the ribbon fits to the slope of the lampshade. Make 6 equally spaced triangular folds around the ribbon. Pin and glue in place.
6. To cover these folds, thread 4 beads onto a short length of thin silver wire. Fold over the ends of the wire to secure the beads and glue in place over the folds.
