The shade is glorious!
Attaching a photo of the lampshade with my lamp. Thank you so much. The shade is glorious!
So happy to buy from a rural business run by women. My great grandparents were farmers in Narrabri and my dad was born in Bingara (1937) when his dad was there as Post Master.

Pleased to find a ready-made shade
Many thanks for ensuring such a quick dispatch of the lampshade in time for my daughter’s birthday, which is tomorrow. I came across your lampshades last year in ‘Buy from the Bush’ during lockdown.
It was our project to transform Eleanor’s little girl room of pink and green to more sophisticated shades for a teenager. I had planned to custom order a shade last year, but I was too slow! I decided not to wait, and was pleased that you had a ready-made shade that would suit. Wishing you both a fabulous 2022. Here’s hoping it’s less bumpy than the previous two years!

Quality make and finish
We gifted our daughter a gorgeous LU lamp for her birthday and to lighten up her 100+ year old Queenslander cottage. Quality make and finish thank you. The newbies on BFTB look fabulous. The teal green I love!

I'm delighted
I just want to say how lovely my three new lampshades are and how delighted I am with them.
Delivery was very quick ( despite your warning of possible delays) and packaging was excellent. Many thanks.

Looking forward to getting more!
My lampshade arrived today (after doing a couple of laps of the east coast!!), and I absolutely love it! Thank you so much. Looking forward to getting some others made by you when you’re next open for custom orders!
Thank you again!

A ray of sunshine
My beautiful lampshade arrived today with your lovely hand written card! I was so excited to open the box!!
The ‘re-inventing’ of my room from a flown-the-nest daughter’s bedroom to a library/ napping/ cosy sitting room has been a labour of love that is filled with treasures belonging to my late mother and grandmother as well new pieces and fabrics.
Thank you so much for adding another ray of sunshine to my ‘happy place’!

Thanks to the team
My beautiful lampshade arrived today, just in time for a birthday treat to myself. Really happy with this, set on the old handmade fencepost lamp. Thanks to all the team there. There's likely to be another order shortly for my other turned cedar lamp.

Process was a breeze
Fridays don’t get much better than this! Thank you so much for the beautiful shades. The quality and workmanship surpasses many other shade companies I have bought from.
The whole process was a breeze with ease of choosing a fabric and shape online, and great communication through to dispatch. I will certainly be recommending you to friends and my customers.

It's perfect
I just wanted to thank you for my lamp which arrived this week. After having visited your website a number of times and following your Instagram and just loving your shades and fabrics, I finally took the plunge and purchased a shade and lamp base on the virtual Mother’s Day market day stall.
Can’t tell you how happy I am with it....its just perfect for my living area and now am definitely considering ordering another one for a standing lamp in our lounge room. Thank you once again. I hope your business is doing well in these tricky times.

Just love them!
Thank you so much for the lamp shades. Just love them! I am thrilled to be supporting #buyfromthebush and have discovered businesses I would have otherwise not. Thank you from the south east of SA (Coonawarra wine district).

Finished off my space
I absolutely LOVE my new lamp. Thanks so much LightenUp Handmade for finishing off my space; and all the more special seeing where it came from and the journey it's taken to get from the beautiful outback to inner city Melbourne!

Fabulous customer service
Thank you LightenUp Handmade, just love what you do out in rural Australia, inspiring us all to fill our homes with colour and stunning fabrics! It was great to do business with you and your customer service and follow up to queries was fabulous and to receive the finished lampshades by post all beautifully packaged was so exciting!
