About the final project for: Creating a Woven Ceiling Lampshade

Creating a Woven Ceiling Lampshade

“Thank you so much for taking this Domestika course with me. It's your turn to weave now, but before I leave you I'm going to go over the main steps to follow to complete the project. This can be the suspension you have already started with the exercises or you can create a new one! In any case, take care to document the different stages of your creation and add a brief explanation of what you did in each of them as well as your choices.
