Black Trimmed Lamp Shades

Okay so maybe I have a problem...

or it's a trend...

I have three lamp shades with black trim. Two are ribbon and one is painted...I think I am done-but you never know.

In my defense the two with the ribbon just needed a little umph...




The green one had a "cat problem" ! That is my cat likes to rub her grimy face up against the rim of the shade...I was going to get a new shade but decided to take the "less expensive" approach and paint the trim using painters tape. The first time I did it the top bled through...so I had to make it a little bigger...I actually like the "custom" look and it will extend the life of the shade.


Hope you are having a great week ! Sorry about the MIA I was up in Burlington painting the final room in my daughter's condo a light grey. We took off the closet doors -that did not open and replaced them with curtains. They need to be ironed...but you get the idea.  These pictures I took with my phone and I had just hung the curtains...




Until next time...
