How To Make a Beautiful Pendant Lampshade Out of Wrapping Paper -- Apartment Therapy Tutorials

I have always loved the look of an origami lampshade -- the simplicity and graphic nature makes it a statement piece in any home.

Today we're lucky to have Erin here giving us step-by-step instructions on how to create one of these gorgeous lampshades yourself.
