Please measure your lampshade according to the example here. Note that measurements are to the OUTSIDE of the frame. Binding tape, Rolled edges, or trim will increase the overall dimensions. If you need additional help, please take a look at this reference page or click here to give us a call at the support phone number listed at the top of this website.




Charitable Matching Funds: Help us to support St. Jude Children's Research Hospital (https://www.stjude.org/). Choose your donation amount, we will add it to your invoice and match those funds to support this worthy charity.
Current funds you've donated to St Jude: $2694 ($5388 with our match!) THANK YOU!

Frame Dimensions: We offer sizing in 1/2" increments. Frame sizes are to the OUTSIDE of the wire and do not include any binding tape, material thickness, trim thickness, overlapping seam, etc... In other words, a circle with a diameter of 10" would have a 10" wire frame plus (roughly) 1/8" to 1/4" of additional width added with tape, material, trim, etc...   Please round your dimensions UP or DOWN to the nearest 1/2" based on the information above.   If you have a MAX SIZE restriction, please give us an email or call with your situation.

Common Fitter Types Available: If you don't see your fitter listed below, please give us a call. We have our own welding department and can make just about anything! (Click on an image below to see a larger view.)  If your fitter selection is CHIMNEY RING, please note in the 'Special Instructions' what the *inside diameter* of your ring is.  If your fitter selection is REFLECTOR NOTCHES, please note in the 'Special Instructions' what the *outside* diameter of your glass bowl is.   In either of these special cases, it would be very helpful to send us a photo graph of your Chimney or Bowl with a tape measure stretched across the top. PLEASE NOTE: Euro fitters fit standard Euro Sockets. They are slightly smaller then the described size. In other words, a 1 5/8" Euro fitter is actually 1 9/16" inside dimension, and so forth.

Measuring Your Fitter Drop: By default, your spider & fitter is welded to the top frame of your lampshade. In general, your fitter drop is the distance from the "top of the lampshade" to the ring (fitter) that attaches to your lamp base. If you have any question(s) at all or need help measuring your fitter drop, please give us a call at the support phone number listed at the top of this website. (Click on an image to see a larger view.)     In some instances, the spider & fitter are welded to the BOTTOM frame of your lampshade. So it might "rise from the bottom" instead of "drop from the top".  For these cases, please note in the 'Special Instructions' that your "DROP" inches are actually "RISE" inches and that the spider is welded to the bottom frame.

  • Standard 1/2" Washer; 1/2" Drop
  • Euro; 2" Drop
  • Uno; 4" Drop
  • Cut Washer; 3/4" Drop
  • Standard Washer - 6" Drop
  • Standard Washer - 6" Drop
  • Standard Washer - 3/4" Drop


Common Fitter Colors Available: Use the Special Instructions to designate the color that you are looking for or if you would like an enamel color that you don't see here:

  • Brass
  • Nickel
  • Enamel Antique Brass
  • Enamel White
  • Enamel Black
  • Enamel Cream


Trim Options Available: There are 3 basic trim options and then variations of those: (1) Traditional 1/2" trim, (2) Modern Rolled Edge trim, (3) Rustic Whipstitch trim. See the photos below or click here for additional information. Please NOTE: We no longer make matching trim for Customers Own Material. The primary option is 'Rolled Edges', but we can also attempt to find the closest matching (or contrasting) trim from our stock trim options. Also, we can accept Customer Supplied Trim as long as it is cut-on-the-bias and not an inflexible ribbon type of trim.

Diffusers: Diffusers are the pieces of acrylic or polystyrene that sit in the top or bottom of the lampshade and (literally) diffuse the light bulb's direct light. Diffusers often are placed in the bottom of pendant lampshades when the lampshade sits above eye level, but can go in just about any lampshade. Acrylic diffusers are (by far) the most common type and are a milky white. Polystyrene diffusers are the same material used in the lampshade sides and are normally made in matching or contrasting material to the lampshade. Typically, if a white diffuser is desired, acrylic is used. If choosing a polystyrene diffuser, please put a note into the 'Special Instructions' area for your desired color (white, matching, or contrasting). Diffusers are optional and are not typical.

Production Lead Time: Production Lead Time represents the number of business days it takes us to manufacture your lampshade. Orders placed after 2pm Central will be processed the next business day. If any requested lampshade specifications effect the production lead time noted, you will be contacted for options. Production Lead time begins when all customer supplied materials (if any) arrive at the factory location. PLEASE NOTE: It will take additional time to ship your lampshade from our location to you. Our lampshades all ship via FedEX Ground Shipping - if you need faster shipping, please contact us or put your instructions into the "Special Instructions" area to the left. If you have a shipping account or a specific carrier you would like us to use, please let us know.


Special Instructions: We pay close attention to 'Special Instructions'. Please use the 'Special Instructions' area to give us any additional specifications or instructions. You can also use this area for any questions or comments that you might have.



Hardback Fabric/Material Types:   Please browse through our in-stock fabrics below. In the "MATERIAL" list above, you will be asked to choose a fabric. Be aware that every monitor and printer displays the same color differently. Because of color variations from electronic to real-life, it is always prudent to verify your fabric color and selection by ordering a swatch.


Hardback Swatch Ordering   Ordering a swatch is always recommeneded. Please click here to order online, or click here to send us an email or give us a call.


Customer's Own Material (COM)   Remember, if you have a fabric at home or see something online that you would like to make your lampshade out of, send it to us! We can use that, too! Select the option for "Customer's Own Material" under the "Material" drop-down list in the order form above. When using this option, please click here to contact us (phone call or email) to determine how much material we will need to create your lamp shade. "Production Lead Time" begins when your material is received.

For COM, we have 3 different interior colors that we can laminate to: Standard White (like all of our stock materials, Gold (satin finish), and Silver (satin finish). We can provide swatch sample of either of these for your viewing. If you are not sure, or you don't specify, we will laminate to our most common polystyrene, the white.

NOTE: Some fabrics (normally more expensive) will have 2 layers. This is problematic in our lamination process as the inner layer will laminate nicely, but the outer layer tends to 'bubble up' since it is not adhering to anything. Some 2-layer materials are bound together better than others, but if a 2-layer material is sent in, we cannot gaurentee proper lamination.

NOTE2: We take care and time during lamination of your material. Sometimes mistakes happen, though. We will take responsibility for errors that we make during our processing up to $50/yard of material (with receipt). IF YOUR MATERIAL IS MORE THAN $50/yard, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

NOTE3: PLEASE TALK TO US ABOUT YOUR TRIM OPTIONS if you are going to send us your material. In general, we won't have any 'matching trim' for your material. Most customers use the 'Rolled Edge' option - clean and modern and looks awesome with patterns - but you can also send us your bias-cut, flexible trim or choose a contrasting trim from our stock.

You can mail your material to: 521 Baltimore Ave, Albertville, AL, 35950.

HARDBACK SWATCH VIEWING INSTRUCTIONS: Click on a swatch below to view a larger photo of the material. If your screen allows, you can open more than one swatch at a time AND you can reposition the swatch to see two or three together. Click on the larger swatch (or the "X" in the right corner) to close down the larger photo.

PLEASE NOTE: Due to coloring and hue variations between electronic swatches and real-life, it is ALWAYS recommended to order a swatch if color is critical.

PLEASE ALSO NOTE: Due to variations in dye lots and changes in vendor/suppliers, any swatch that is over 90 days old should be reordered to ensure accurate colors and textures.
