Milk Carton Upcycled Into MILKSHELL2 Lampshade

One of the first lampshades I made using plastic milk cartons was the MilkShell. And today I’m happy to show you another and bigger version, 48 cm. diameter, of that lampshade. Named ‘MilkShell2′ and again made out of leftovers from producing other upcycle lamshades.
After cutting up all these cartons I ended up with the top part, a middle part and the bottom. For this design, like the original MilkShell, I used the top part, but in such a way that you wouldn’t recognize the milk carton right away. And I hope I succeeded in doing so.
