  Decorating with custom rawhide lamp shades as part of your homes decor is the best way to give your home authentic rustic or Native style. The thing I enjoy most about unique hand crafted lamp shades is the captivating glow and inviting ambiance they generate no matter how they are used. These rustic rawhide shades are made of goat skin, and are perfect because of their versatility and ability to enhance rustic style home accessories and color schemes.

Perfect for use in cabins and log homes and anywhere you want to incorporate amazing country design, rawhide lamp shades are definitely the best choice in southwestern home lighting and for use on rustic lighting fixtures. The best part about leather shades is that they are available in custom sizes and in natural or dark colored rawhide. No matter if you are selecting a western lamp shade for a large area lamp or simply want custom rawhide lamp shades to fit small chandelier or antler lamps, you will easily be able to find the perfect one for your decorating style.

The beautiful variety of color tones is what gives the rawhide shades such wonderful appeal. Southwestern rawhide shades come in a unique darkly smoked color that allows the light to pass through while producing a glowing warmth and welcoming atmosphere. The unique rawhide stitching adds to the shades characteristic rustic look and fabulous southwestern design. Whether buying a shade to enhance your home design or to combine with dark leather or rustic furniture, custom rawhide lamp shades will tie all the elements together to produce great country design.

Bleached rawhide lamp shades have a cream color with natural rust colored highlights that are illuminated when the light passes through the shade. These light colored shades are stunning when used with rustic wooden furniture and southwestern items such as log ladders or pueblo style ladders. You will also enjoy how rustic rawhide shades look great with other rustic decor for a beautiful combination in country style and design. Use your hand made lamp shades with matching rustic accessories like Native American baskets and pottery for fabulous pueblo, country, southwest or Native American design.

If you like the natural beauty of rawhide, you will also enjoy the unique look of dyed rawhide lamp shades. These custom lamp shades are a wonderful way to add a touch of color to any home while staying within the same rustic style decorating theme. Colored shades are first treated with a bleaching solution and then dyed to reach the perfect color. The result is a beautifully colored rawhide shade, with a unique grain pattern that is enhanced when illuminated.

If you wish to buy rawhide custom shades to use with lighting fixtures you already own or to go on special wroughtiron lamps, you can easily find them online and in many stores that sell rustic home decor and accessories. No matter which kind of home lighting fixture you use with your shade, you will enjoy the inviting ambiance created in your home when decorating with custom rawhide lamp shades.
