caught on my sleeve. I picked it up, and

Unlike leaf-decorated lampshades you

completely covered in leaves. Elegant
swaths and patterns. Secondary shapes
and color shades where leaves overlap.
Other designs call for painstakingly
inlaying leaves or flowers into a back-
ground, or creating a sort of mosaic,
or leaded-glass, effect.
