Welcome to Shadez of Michelle and Suzanne Michelle Illuminations.



My name is Michelle Tomlinson, and I have been creating custom lighting solutions since 1990. I have created custom lamp shades for literally thousands of marvelous vintage lamps, chandeliers, oil lights, and sconces, and I have repaired as well as re-finished many of those pieces. A large part of my work has been in creating custom lamp shades for my clients, specifically to match their decor, but my real passion is in taking a beautifully detailed vintage lighting piece and creating just the right Victorian style lamp shade to bring it to life. You will see that I can create a lamp and shade for any decor, but I will offer a variety of other things on my site as well. I hope you enjoy viewing my work as much as I enjoy creating it.

One more thought;  every one of my pieces are hand crafted by me personally, and I hope they will become  cherished heirlooms to charm you and your guests for a lifetime.
