Lampshade Renovation for Daisy’s New Room
Posted by melissa on Jul 9, 2012 in Daisy's room | 26 comments
I am blogging from a friend’s house.
Our kids are running, laughing and playing all through the house.
I just finished this quick project, but the lighting is not great for pictures!
We have had such a full day. . . no time to craft!
But, we have had a great day!
So, this will be short and sweet!
We are in the process of redecorating my oldest daughter, Daisy’s room.
She already had a great lamp, but it just needed a little more color!
I started with this lamp – no, it is not a thrift store find!
But, we already had it and we still like it!
It just needed a little more color for this “Anthropologie” inspired room!
I bought 3 rolls of blue and 3 rolls of orange ribbon.
I secured the first end with a safety pin.
Then, I wrapped and wrapped and wrapped!
Each time I ran out of a spool of ribbon, I just tied on another one.
I alternated colors.
I glued the ends down using fabric glue.
And, here is the final result!
One jazzed up lamp.
Terrible lighting for pictures.
Very happy children with a full fun day of being with friends!
Life to the full to you!
Here are the places that I party!

The lamp looks gorgeous!!! This is such a simple idea and it turned out great!! Love the colours you chose:)
Very clever! Great color combination! Can’t wait to see the completed room.
The shade came out really good and I love the colors. The lamp base is fantastic.

love the light blue and orange! looks like a weave!
This is so absolutely cool. I was just inspired by some diy lamp shades on Design Star. Now I see yours and am double inspired. So cool!
This turned out gorgeous! What a great idea! It’s always so hard to find a nice lampshade at a decent price. This is quite a transformation.
I would love it if you would share this at my new Smart Solutions linky party. You can link up here:

I love this lampshade (and the cool lamp, too). It turned out stunning! I’m hosting a linky party “One Creative Weekend” at OneCreativeMommy.com. I’d love for you to visit and link up this idea and/or anything else you’d like to share.
(I can’t wait to try this!)
Okay, that is just so creative and pretty! I love the way you think. Thank you for sharing this at the Make it Pretty Monday party at The Dedicated House. Toodles, Kathryn @TheDedicatedHouse
I hopped on over from Tip Junkie as this project caught my eye! I love the lines and texture of the lampshade. So very creative and I’m inspired. Thanks so much for sharing! Great job!
So, so happy you were able to stop by the party last week! I’m featuring this at today’s party {coming out later this afternoon}. Hope you have a great week!
