Finders keepers

                                This Lampshade was being thrown away.....I saved it.

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

Any Poppy lovers out there??

THis is what we started with....I love Pineapple.  Well, I love to eat it anyway.

I bought these at a thrift store months ago. 

 ENtry table before

I spray painted the sconces with kilz primer and then scraped it up a bit to show the details in the tin. Then i started in with the poppy's.

I am no professional... but I like the way they turned out.

I am not quite done with the new arrangement on the table but the flowers are done:)

Thanks for stoppin' by

I will be linking up so go here to see where I party. And thank you for the link-up ladies!
