I assume that you're talking about hanging lamps with a shade on them. Just
put the two wires together with some glue if they are seperate, making sure
that they are straight (you won't want to have the lights dangling on a
curved cable now, would you?) and then run a pair of wires or flat brass
stock along the top of the beam and solder them to the brass. Be neat about
it and things will look good. If you want, place another piece of wood over
the brass so that the top of the beam is wood. Also apply some tubing or
larger wire along the beam to simulate the conduit that the wires would be
normally running in. If desired, you can make that one of the electrical
contacts for the lighting.

Get out the punches that you have and find the right size and start punching
some aluminum foil, the thicker industrial stuff.
A simple wood mold of the shape you desire with a rod of wood to press the
alumium foil into the mold and you've got lampshades! Attach with some
black epoxy (you don't want light going up!) to the middle part of the bulb
and your'e done.
