funshopping LTD 2 Sets Of Retro Puzzle Lampshade - Medium 28 To 30Cm Lightshade Jigsaw Light Shade Self Assembly.

Arrived really quickly, the instructions are a bit out as it comes with 30 pieces for each shade but instructions only give for 25, however there are plenty of youtube videos to keep you right and once you get into the swing of it and understand the pattern it fits together quite quickly. First one did take me about an hour!! The second only took me about 20 mins. They look stunning once up, I love mine!

Got this yesterday lunchtime and made it last night whilst watching a film.If you have good spatial awareness and are logical and methodical this will be no trouble at all. The instructions are perfectly clear (all you really need for any size, and there are loads of you tube videos some of which are painfully slow. I can see that it is probably a nightmare if your brain doesn't work that way though.Hanging it is another matter though. You need to be able to see what you're doing support the weight (probably easier with a 30 piece shade) and need both hands to get all the hooks around the wire. I didn't manage to do that so I took it down tonight after putting it up yesterday night. I'm going to try to get help or I might re-wire. I think it will probably be easier to complete the shade with the wire inside it while it's not attached to the ceiling, I think it will be easier to get someone to hold it while I screw the wires back in rather than try to put the shade together high up where I can't see well.I believe all this is worth the effort, the shade looks amazing. It's plenty bright enough, no ugly bulb or wierd patterns on the ceiling. It looks gorgeous. I love it really good price.

Ok, fun to put together, but the cable for the bulb does not go through it easily. The way it slots together leaves no hole at all for the cord, so it ends up sort of coming out between two pieces instead and then hangs wonkily, with danger of the bulb touching the plastic. Does anyone have any tips for threading the cord through, please?!?!?

Very good value, 2 sets for the price of one.Assembly is tricky - not sure of the written instructions as I jumped over to Youtube where there are plenty of demos.The assembled unit does in fact look as good as the pictures so a bit of persistence is well worth it - especially giving the rip off prices for other lamps. Only hang up is actually attaching the unit to the lamp - would have been much easier if a special card was available for this purpose, you can of course make your own.Will buy again as a present in due course.Note, usable on 40 watts or less bulbs ONLY!

Brilliant lampshade, just follow instuctions very carefully. There are lots of videos on utube showing how to do it, but do try on your own first. That's what makes it fun I think. The only thing that I find a bit of a pain is once it's finished and you are going to hang it is the fitting onto the lamp fitting. But I got there in the end. A great buy.
