Quick Lamp Shade Redo in a Shabby Way

I frequent thrift stores on a regular basis

Looking through their clothing for wonderful fabrics

And garments that can be altered into something romantic and beautiful.

I came across this little ruffled cotton skirt......only 12" long and wondered

What sassy little behind wore this piece,

As it doesn't appear it would cover anything.

But it was so cute I bought it anyway.

Finally found the perfect size lamp shade to cover,

But not before I tea stained it.

I left the underlining in place so as to mute the light even more when the lamp

Is turned on.

Tied a piece of ripped muslin around the top with a big bow

And called it a day.

Very little work, just finding all the right size elements for the project.

Now I just need the perfect lamp.

It's getting really cold here in Texas as I know it is about everywhere....

Bundle up and stay warm!

Thanks for stopping by today...

I love it when you come.
