Gannett News Service

If you can't find a lampshade that you're fond of, Maryellen Driscoll and Lisa Skolnik will show you how to make one.

Projects in their new book, "Lampshades & Lighting: The Project and Decorative Sourcebook" (Thunder Bay Press, $19.98) are so pretty that you'll want to wear them as party hats.

Learn how to make contemporary shades, sconces and window treatments. One nifty project: How to make a lampshade with a photograph on it. The book includes 40 such projects.
