Abstract
A lamp shade assembly kit includes an assembly ring formed of flexible material into a closed loop, a hoop formed of rigid material and a cover member formed of flexible material into a continuous, open-ended configuration. The assembly ring has an enlarged hoop-receiving channel opening inwardly about the periphery thereof. The cover member is adapted to be secured to the assembly ring. The hoop can then be inserted into the enlarged channel in the assembly ring to give a selected shape to the assembly ring and cover member. With these features, the lamp shade assembly kit may be shipped and stored in knockdown condition and quickly assembled without tools in any of a wide variety of shapes and sizes with optional decorative trim selections.
