This crafty Wooden Ruler lampshade craft project is a great way to decorate a kid's bedroom, study room, or even a home office for a teacher. Nothing says school house days more than a wooden ruler and they are perfect as a lampshade.

You can use any old or damage fabric lampshade as the base for this project to save money.

To make a Wooden Ruler lampshade you will need:

Small Fabric Lamp Shade (can not be taller than your pencils)

Wooden Ruler (You could use clear plastic rulers)

Scissors

Hot Glue

The first step is to find your lampshade. I like to find the lampshade based on how tall it is. Most wood rulers are 12 inches tall, so look for a lampshade that is at least 10 inches tall.

Now, you need to completely remove all of the fabric from your damaged or existing lampshade. Start by poking some scissors through the fabric, then cut away. Once you have the body of the fabric removed then start working on the material wrapped onto he wires. This will take some time, but is a great way to save a little money and salvage and exiting lampshade.

Tip: If you don't have a damaged or existing lampshade you want to get rid of you can buy these wire frames of a lampshade at any lampshade store. Some arts and crafts stores will also sell them.

Now, take your first Wooden Ruler. Place a line of glue on the upper and lower round wires of the metal lampshade frame. Press the Wooden Ruler in place vertically, like a line running up and down the shade.

Hold the Wooden Ruler in place on the lampshade until the glue cools. You could also use epoxy glue for this easy lampshade craft project.

Now, add some more to your lampshade wire right next to the first Wooden Ruler. Press a second color pencil in place and hold until set.

Now, continue repeating this process all the way around the lampshade. You can space them however you would like. I recommend placing the Wooden Ruler directly next to each other with. This way you won't fid yourself staring at the bulb of the lamp.

Tip: For a really whimsical look you could use twine to attach the Wooden Ruler or even shoes laces after you have glue them on. You could also use wire. Simply attach one Wooden Ruler, and then use the twine or shoe string wire to wrap around the area of the Wooden Ruler where it touches the wire lampshade. Wrap around like an X to make it look like the twine is holding the Wooden Ruler on.

You can also try painting your rulers. I think bright and cheerful colors would be perfect! Use spray paint to evenly paint each ruler. Allow them to dry before you attach them.

Try painting on stainless steel silver paint. This would give an awesome industrial look in a loft or trendy new home.

Always use a low watt bulb and never leave the lamp unattended.
