The Lamp was a purchase at a Thrift store. just a few bucks.
I spray painted it with a coat of my favorite brand of SPray Paint. Rustoleum!!!
If you have a choice in the colors I suggest getting Rustoleum....it covers so much better than the others I have tried.
The color is Lagoon.
I added some ruffles.
12 to be exact measuring a little less than 2 inches across and the length was 2 yards.
I used a ruffle foot....or what ever you call it on my bernina sewing machine.
It went pretty fast.
Then I hot glued it in place.
Last month for a Party my Ward Relief Society ( my Church group) needed some decor so I made some banners and connected them with these flowers.
I had them hanging around so I added them to the lamp with pins.
Oh did I show you the table before and afters?
I will once I can get the before picture off my phone...its not connecting.
Probably because I never installed the software. Maybe I will text it to my husband who then can send it since he has a smart phone and I dont. :)
Hope you are getting ready to enjoy the summer. I am ready to get a tan and enjoy lazy days at the pool.
thanks. xo

So so cute! I looove Rustoleum paint too, it's the only kind I use. It sprays so much nicer than the other kinds. I saw that color a while back and I keep wanting to buy some, but I don't have anything to paint at the moment. I need to hit up some thrift stores!
