Lamp from Ribbons & Twirls



I have to share this with ya'll because I absolutely LOVE it! I guess it's a good thing that I don't have any little girls because I would probably have to fight them over this! A dear friend of mine from Ribbons & Twirls made this for a craft show this weekend. She does a lot of those frilly little tulle TuTu's, ribbons and hair clips, and cute holders for hair clips, this lamp being one of those!



She found a lamp at a consignment shop, spray painted the base, and pulled the fabric off of the shade, leaving just the metal. Then she covered the metal wire in colorful pink and brown ribbon, adding extra strips of ribbon where there was no wire. And finished it off with that darling pink pom-pom fringe...FANTASTIC huh?!

In a Girlie Mood

It is officially AuTuMn... HAPPY FALL YA'LL!!

It seems I would be crafting fall tonight to celebrate this special day, right?...wrong. I was feeling extra girlie and shabby chic tonight and it showed in my creations.

You know how much I have been loving wreaths here lately and I decided to make another Folded Book Page Wreath, the one I created a tutorial for a few weeks back. (If you click on the link, it will take you to the tutorial) I had been keeping a pile of pages that I have been folding in my spare time and decided it was time to put them to use...



I thought about adding some kind of a bow or fancy flower or spray, but I think these are beautiful all on their own...so chic!! LOVE IT!
And they are so fun to take pictures of. You can get so many angles with them! I guess you can tell I'm slightly obsessed, huh? I'll work on that!

I guess I should figure out how hard it would be to find a box to ship these cuties in so that I can start listing on Etsy. I'll probably take a couple to some of the craft shows I have coming up too.

I also made a jewelry holder from an old picture frame. I had spray painted it a while back and just now gettin' around to doing something with it. I just stapled twin to the back of the frame and some pretty floral fabric behind that, and Voila!!




What do you think? I think you'll be seeing a lot more of these!

Goodnight!
