The lamp looked like this
And sometimes it looks like this:
The shade was just a really fugly old smoker's home yellow trapezoid. To make the four panels I used, I used spray adhesive to adhere the paint samples onto printer paper, then traced the right size and cut four. I used spray adhesive to put the panels onto the lamp shade, and that was a nightmare. Next time I'm just doing hot glue. I love hot glue. So anyway, after the debacle of the spray adhesive, I glued on ribbons onto the corner seams. I do like it, but I don't think my hubby is going to be too hip on it. We'll see.
*Update* When I wrote out this blog post, I didn't know if I really loved it. Since coming home to a dark house and being able to see it lit up in person, I'm stoked about it and so is the Hubster. It stays. It's just so stinking quirky and artsy!
