A Captain America shield out of an old uplighter shade. 1. Take off the fringing. This is generally glued on and should peel off quite easily. 2. Remove the fixings and save for later. 3. Draw circles around the shade. I used various things to do this - an old shade, a cake tinel etc. 4. Paint! I painted using slightly watered down acrylic paint but I ran out so mixed it with some poster paint. 5. Paint a cardboard star white. 6. Glue the fixture back into place - I removed the interim bit to make it all fit but then had to glue it! 7. Put the star on and start playing!
This only took an evening!
