Nesting doll lamp



If you read this blog, you know I have a thing for nesting dolls.  I just love their cuteness.  When I saw this great fabric at crafty planet recently, I knew I had to do something special with it.
Gasp... there was an uncovered lampshade just waiting to be covered!


I bought the ribbon a long time ago at an estate sale.  Probably from the seventies but who knows.  Love the colors.


This lampshade was an easy one to cover... I cut the fabric in a long strip and wrapped it around the shade, using spray adhesive.  


 It makes the room.  Love, love, love it.  I still have some fabric left, for a pillow perhaps?  Do you have any images that you can't pass by?

  2. Jenni, The lamp is to die for. You did such a fantastic job. Love it. I can't pass up anything with a Scottie Dog on it or anything with Cherries on it. It is an addiction.
