I discovered something old. Something I had not run across before. Something kitschy, plastic (celluloid) and fun.
They are shade pulls. Functional was fun back in the day.
I'm discovering that they came in all sorts of shapes, flowers being very popular.
I think they still have a lot of life left in them.
I've given them a second life as necklaces. Just for fun.
SUPER CUTE!!

What a great idea. They are so much cuter than anything I ever saw on a shade. Can’t imagine why they stopped using them.
Very clever re-use of something old and pretty.

I have the one in the second photo hanging from my kitchen fan pull chain. Good re-purposing…and they are darling!

These are great, Suzy! I have some tulip curtain tack-things but no shade pulls. Things used to be so much more cute!

OMG! You have answered a longtime question for me. I have some of these and have never known what they were for. Shade pulls! Thank you… and cute necklaces, by the way!
