Another free online design. There are eight panels. Four panels per scene, which is duplicated so front and back are identical except for minor variations in glass selection. 472 pieces total. As an octagon lamp shade I had to make a paper mock up first to see how shallow it would be… and it is quite shallow. A double horizontal bulb lamp is ideal. The shade looks good in a sunny window too.
A very satisfying project. While I worked on it, my mind traveled to sunny warm islands in the tropics…maybe a cruise 🙂
