New designs for lampshades

Having made the decision to scale down my lamp to a table top version the question then arises whether the original design will work at a smaller scale and if no then new designs need to be developed .This design was developed from a selection taken from a series of photographs taken on the lane outside my house at dusk of plants growing along the top of the "hedge".I have created a cut and repeated it then laser cut from cartridge paper and tested it on the base that Andy made for me .I still need to put in supporting rings top and bottom but am pleased with the result and have bought water colour paper to test on as the cartrige is too flimsy .



The original design actually works well too at this scale .
