Drum shade help please!

I added a drum shade to my breakfast nook light. I didn't care for the light but since the ceiling is about 20 feet high it was going to be too expensive to change out the fixture. The drum shade gives it a new look but I am having problems coming up with a way to hide the ugliness when you look up underneath it. Maybe I could attach the shade different so the harp wouldn't be so in your face when you look up? The bottom three lights would still be visible though. I originally planned on adding crystal and swagging them to hide the bottom lights but after looking at it I'm afraid it will take a ton of crystals and just look like a mess. My next idea is to make a light diffuser for the bottom. I really wanted to be able to look up and see the scrolly arms but I just can't think of any other way. I would love ideas or suggestions please! Also, if I make a diffuser how do I attach it?
