How to Make Paper Candle-Shades

How to Make Paper Candle-Shades

by PollyPinder (Author)

Synopsis

This guide presents a variety of papercraft skills and a wide range of materials to create candle shades for all moods and occasions. A number of ways are suggested to enhance a simple cylinder of plain paper - sticking on leaves, stamps and chess-piece designs. Even the paper labels removed from cans can be recycled into colourful table-pieces. Polly Pinder is the author and designer of the "Home-Made" series - "Home-Made and at a Fraction of the Cost", and the illustrator of "Muck & Magic" which won the 1993 Sir Peter Kent Conservation Book Prize.
