Well, I have been looking for lamp shade ideas for a lamp I have for my vanity and a lamp for Amaya's room. I came across this on one of my favorite DIY blogs and I really like it. It is super girly and if I could find the right lace I would do this for Amaya's room. What do you think?
This is going to be a "mostly photo" post since this was an extremely simple project!
I came upon a massive amount of lace for super cheap at a Goodwill
awhile back. I've been itching to cover a lampshade in ruffle-y lace
for awhile now, and I finally had enough to do it.
I took pictures of the process, but my blogger nightmare has happened
(again! But for good this time I'm afraid) and I lost my camera with a
card full of pictures. I used a piece of chalk to mark around the shade
so I knew where to put the hot glue and worked from the bottom to the
top. I usually eyeball stuff, but I'm positive I would have ended up
very uneven at the top if I hadn't used the chalk! This project was
very easy; just a little time consuming and you need to be prepared to
go through a lot of glue sticks!
I assumed I'd put this shade on a cute lamp and try to sell it, but my little girl insisted it go on the lamp in her room.
It matches her shabby chic decor, so I guess it will stay!
