Lampshade making workshop in Estoril with Maria Jo\u00e3o Teixeira de Abreu, a three-hour hands-on session for anyone who wants to learn to create their own handmade lampshade from start to finish, with complete materials, personalised step-by-step guidance and a finished piece to take home. Designed for complete beginners and equally relevant for those already working in decoration, crafts or interior design who want to expand their skills and portfolio. Maximum six participants per session.<\/p>\n
The session covers the full lampshade construction process across three hours: choosing the right materials and structure, applying the covering and working through the finishing details that give each piece its quality and aesthetic. Maria Jo\u00e3o guides every stage clearly and personally, ensuring that every participant feels confident and well-supported throughout the execution. More than a technical skill, the workshop is an invitation to think about light as an essential design element and to discover how a handmade lampshade can transform the atmosphere of any space.<\/p>\n
