Leftovers (fabric not food)

After my adventure in reupholstering this 
wing back chair, I had some fabric leftover.

So, I put it to good use and made a matching lampshade with an old lampshade frame.

I simply tied the strips of fabric to the top edge of the frame. I also added in a few strips of muslin.


It has taken its rightful place atop a floor lamp next to the wing back chair at Earth Mama's General Store.

You can see more of my space at Earth Mama's

  12. Did you use a regular light bulb? Or the string lights... If latter, where on the frame did you string them? I love this!
