A letter punched out of a paper lampshade is almost invisible, until you turn on the light.
To make a monogrammed lampshade, you will need: a piece of white paper, a paper lampshade, removable tape and an awl.
Start by creating a template: Print a letter on white paper or enlarge one from a book on a photocopier. Position the template on the lampshade, securing it with removable tape. With an awl, carefully prick along the outline of the letter, spacing the holes about 1/8-inch apart. (Practice on scrap card stock first.)
Carefully remove the template.
