craft material do I need for the Lampshade in Black-white?
The Lampshade is designed with Straw silk paper, Napkin and a border for the upper and lower edge. For fixing and cutting we recommend silhouette scissors, spray glue and Napkin varnish.
How do I tinker with a bird motif at Lampshade ?
First, glue Lampshade with straw silk. Cut Straw silk paper to size on the sides of the lampshade and fix it with Napkin glue on the Lampshade. Let the motif straw silk dry

Spray the back of the motif with spray adhesive, position the Napkin carefully on the Lampshade and press it carefully with a soft brush from the inside to the outside. Make sure that the Napkin lies smoothly on the Lampshade and does not wrinkle. Let the glue dry

Motifs of a Napkin can be cut out particularly well with silhouette scissors, as these are particularly suitable for filigree cutting work.
It is worth using a special napkin brush for Napkin technique and for handicrafts with Straw silk paper , because it has particularly soft bristles. The thin fabric of Napkins or of Straw silk paper is pressed particularly gently, you avoid damage to the paper.
