Hi Elizabeth,
Do you have a picture you could post so we can see what you are starting with? Is this a table lamp or a floor lamp, and what ideas do you have about how it should look?
Here's what one hometalker did:

You can cover it with fabric, decoupage it with pretty paper, add trim like fringe or pompoms.
