better than new



I love the base of this lamp, but the shade is just a teeny bit bland.



This is a vintage lamp shade that was ready for a makeover!



I peeled off the fabric and the plastic ridges that gave it it's shape. It was kinda gross/kinda fun!



Then I recovered the shade in this sweet vintage silk scarf that I got for $1.30 at the flea market on Saturday. Isn't it precious? I know not everyone is as into the Bohemian/Granny Chic look as I am, and you may think this lamp is just awful, but I love it!!!!

    Very nice. I love the Boho Chic Granny look but my husband doesn't.
