She says, "I recently bought 2 Grono lamps off of Craigslist but when I got them home, I hated the way they looked and the harsh light that they emitted! After a couple of weeks of hiding them in the closet I remembered that I had some extra felt laying around. I have been reading a lot about felt these days and have seen some interesting applications of felt and lighting fixtures. So, I decided to design a jacket for my lamps which softens the light and make the lamp so much more interesting!
Obviously this is a simple fix. I took felt that was 18" in width (a little bit longer then the actual circumference) recycled some old shirt buttons, sewed them on about 3/4" from one edge and then cut corresponding slits to accommodate the buttons on the other end. Easy and a big improvement!"
