Create photo pendant light shades and be the envy of all your friends.
Use duster and or vacuum gently with appropriate fitting.
Square pendant light shades come with a standard sized fitting ring, for standard UK pendant lights. Putting your lampshade up is simple to do, and won't take very long at all.
Step 1: Prepare
Before you start, make sure that your light is off - if you can it's best to turn off the electric at the main fuse box. Then just remove the light bulb from your pendant fitting.
Step 2: Remove the bottom
After that, you'll need to unscrew the bottom of the fitting. Most UK pendant lights will have a black, tabbed ring to make this easy to find and once you've got it all you need to do is twist it - for pendants that don't have a black ring, the line where the two parts split should be easy to find if you look closely. When the bottom part is completely unscrewed you will be able to see the exposed thread underneath.
Step 3: Install lampshade
Now simply put your lampshade over the exposed thread on the fitting and then put the bottom part back on again. The lampshade should now be held in place.
Step 4: Test
Last but not least, put the bulb back in, switch your electrics back on, and try the light - it's that easy.

To give your custom hanging lights an authentic feel we use a semi-translucent textile which is ever so slightly textured. This poly fabric is fire rated. You can choose whether to have the painted frame with the fitting located at the top or the bottom of the shade, and it will be backed with a fire rated inner lining. Your custom design will be printed in full colour all the way up to the edges of the frame so there won't be any gaps unless you have intentionally put them in.
Your shade will come with an adaptor that is removable so that you can adjust the size of the fitting ring.
Consider using bigger images so that they still look stunning even from a distance. As the square lampshades come with four sides that can be customised separately, you could try using a different theme for each side. For example, you could use a photo (or a photo collage) for each of the four seasons, or a side for each family member, to create a personal touch. If you want to use the same design on all four sides, there is a handy "Copy Side" button built into our online design tool.
The custom-made lampshades are handmade to order, and as such, no two are ever the same. This means that they are perfect for all over the house, however, we think that the contemporary square design looks amazing in living spaces such as living rooms and conservatories as it gives the room a really modern feel to it.
