I started Country Childs Co to make lampshades with strong engaging images for children, not readily available otherwise, inspired by my mother who drew dogs in ink on parchment candle shades.

From my studio on Dartmoor, I make modern classic children's lampshades based on a Victorian illustrations. Silk screened and hand painted on organic cotton or parchment paper featuring expertly drawn Mr Toad and Mr Frog, The Cat and the Fiddle, 3 Ways to Ride, Frogs Reaching for the Skies.

Each shade has a luggage tag with the start of a story….inspiring children to start imagining stories to wrap around the characters.

I have a new Parchment Paper lampshade range...bespoke Large Standard Lamps or small Candle Shades in mottled parche marque, ochre or white, parchment paper. Made to measure to fit your space at home, threaded in a choice of colours.

Everything is ethically fsc sourced and the cotton is from a woman’s cooperative in India Plastic free.

I also print these much loved characters on cushions, aprons, wrapping paper etc.

Press: My Lampshades have featured in Country Living, Country Life and House and Gardens; The List.
