I love little lamps. I have a stash of them because when I see a cute one at the
thrift store or a yard sale I usually end up buying it. I just can't help it!
These little lamps don't always come with lampshades or the shades that do come
with them are not as cute as they could be.
This one had a big stain on it so I decided to see what I could do.
I removed the fabric. Just rip and cut and tear.
Then I tore strips of fabric that I thought went well together that I had in my fabric stash.
About 11/2ish inches wide. Did not even measure.
Tied the strips to the top wire and the bottom wire.
Trimmed it up and we're done. It took less than an hour.
On these cold and dreary winter days I like to light little lamps
here and there to cheer up our little house.
It does a lot to cheer me up too.

I need a fun project to keep me from going crazy during this cold, mucky-air-breathing weather. Your lamps look cute!
That is so cute! What a great idea.
I love love love your header. So cottagey cute. That shade is darling and even I could tackle that. I am so not crafty.
How sweet are those lamps...never saw one before, adorable, Francine.
That is DARLING! On days like this, i either need a liquor cabinet, or a craft. So thanks to your idea, my soul and sobriety is still in tact. :)
Love it...so cute!!
