Another Project

The repairs I made on the living room prior to painting created lots of . While I was cleaning off this lamp to put back in place I came up with a little project. Here is the lamp. My project will be covering the shade with fabric from the left over curtain material. I may also try a throw pillow or two. But first the shade. Here it is...sort of pinned on. A little short on the width. Guess I'll have to piece it. Nothing is ever easy! Since the shade is tapered or would that be bell shaped...I will have to take small sections in at the top. Not sure if I will like the outcome with several seams on the shade but I want to try. It will be something that just fits over the shade. That way if I ever get tired of it or don't like the way it comes out, I can remove it without having to replace the shade. This lamp was originally given to my mom and dad as a wedding gift. The wiring was brittle so I have to rewire it and the little globe in the bottom lights up too. I rarely use it but it does work. So that's my next project. I will post the outcome when finished.
