Instructions:
Step 1:
Get 4 pieces of popsicle sticks and glue them together to make a square. Let it dry and make 4 more. Once done, arrange the 4 squares to make a bigger square but make sure to put space in between. Next, get one square and glue it on the center of the 4 pieces. Let them dry completely and make four more of this arrangement.
Step 2:
Arrange each of the big squares into a cross with spaces in between. Get 16 pieces of popsicle sticks and make 4 squares. Let them dry completely.
Step 3:
Glue the squares in between the big squares to connect all of them. Let them dry completely. Once done, get a metal ruler and use it to fold the connection squares in the middle to make the lampshade.
Step 4:
Get 16 popsicle sticks and make 4 squares. Once dried, use the metal ruler and fold each one in half. Put super glue on the folded parts.

Glue the folded squares into the corners of the lampshade.
