Burlap Lamp

I don't have an old picture for this but you have to picture:

70s - wood and brass base

The shade was that awful orange and brown tweed

So 4 coats of gloss white on the base.

Then I used the same lamp shade, took off the trim, covered it in burlap.

(I used spray adhesive for the center then hot glue for the trim.)

The floor was made from light black fabric, cut in shapes, burned the edges to prevent fraying, then just sewn in the middle with a 'pearl' in the center.

I just love it! It's soooo much better than the before!

And... I need to work on staging/not taking pictures at night.

I am going to attempt to link up to the fabulous Samantha Muse for my first blog party.
