I'm late I'm late I'm late....
oooh runnin' late late for Pink Saturday ! In a previous post I showed how I rewire lamps ... I used this sweet vintage rosebud lamp. For me the shades are the most difficult part, finding one that will work without spending a fortune.
For this lamp I had an old shade on hand, but it wasn't in the best condition. I also had a bag of dollar store rose petals. Since they are inexpensive they are a little stiff, but that was perfect for this project.
I started by gluing a row of petals around the bottom of the shade, using a white, quick dry craft glue. Then I added another row overlapping and in the middle of the first row and kept on going. When I got to the top, I cut the petals straight across taking off about 1/2" and then folded and glued them over the top. Then I added some rose embellishment around the top. Quick and easy !
You can see how pretty it looks !
Hope you will hop on over to Beverly's Pink Saturday and visit all the sweet pink participants.

Have a pinkishly beautiful weekend.
I really do think it looks fantastic. I'm trying to get more creative like that.

It looks great with light shining thru and it just makes the vignette you show pop. Love it.
Happy Belated PS.
Your shop looks really nice BTW.
Thanks for your well wished for my mom. She is improving every single day. It's a miracle at her age. Everybody is shocked to see her walking around and going out all the time from the hosp. Alas see what one can do at 92? : )
LOVE YOU
LOVE ME
