From interesting depictions of Native American Indians and fascinating mountain terrain, to detailed paintings of arid desert scenery and Native pueblos, you will certainly be excited with how these hand crafted lamp shades enrich your home's southwestern design and style. What I like most about decorating with leather lamp shades or giving them as gifts, are the large variety of colors and options to choose from.

You can decide between fascinating artwork on dyed pigskin suede lamp shades that come in a variety of colors, or select a painting you like on a natural rawhide shade in a light or dark tone. No matter which you choose, you will definitely find one to coordinate with your color scheme and your decorating needs. The fascinating work of the hand-stitched lacing on the leather lamp shade brings beautiful charm and genuine Native design to your rustic cabin or ranch style home.

Use painted lamp shades on special rustic style light fixtures such as wrought iron or antler lamps to bring out a a true rugged mountain look, or simply change the shade on the standard style lamps that you already own to bring out American Indian design.

Often used on floor lamps for illuminating large rooms or for table lamps and desk lamps, painted lamp shades are perfect for anywhere you want to create a bit of color with western style. You will be fascinate to see how a simple lamp shade can alter the design of the whole room and bring rustic style decor to life in your home. Combine painted leather lamp shades with other country or Native style accessories for true western design. Painted lamp shades look great when used with Indian blankets and throws, log ladders, powwow drums, or hand-made baskets and pottery.

These beautiful shades are difficult to buy in traditional stores where southwestern decor accessories are sold, but you can find them online. If you love the Native American style houses found throughout the southwest, or are simply wanting to bring authentic rustic style to your interior decorating, try decorating with the colorful art of painted lamp shades.
