Your tutor Annie is also passionate about conscious living. If you don’t have a shabby shade then why not find a shade in an op shop that needs to be re loved.
Check if you have a base that suits the size of your shades or maybe hang it from the ceiling. Please consider recycling a piece of fabric to put on the shade.
