- Orange & Aqua Satin Ribbons (10 Yards * 5/8 Inch) (Ribbon Supplier - Fuzzyfabric.com)
- Tape Measure & Pencil
- Hot-glue Gun & Sticks
- Spot one-inch intervals around the top of the shade with a pencil.
- Slice the orange and aqua satin ribbons into 34 10-1/2" strips.
- At each pencil marking, put an orange ribbon strip crosswise. This should go away about 3/8 inches between ribbon strips. Hold in place temporarily with straight pins.
- Hot-glue ribbon ends to the inside top and bottom of the shade.
- After that, attach and weave aqua ribbon strips crosswise in the opposite direction so that they weave through the already secured orange strips.
