Drumroll Please

These past few weeks for me have been unusual. I've had a lot to do. Normally I might only leave the house to pick up the princess from school. It's so irritating when life gets in the way of my crafting!

Anywho, I'm back today, and I made over that thrift store drum shade I told you about earlier. I used stuff I had laying around (which is what I almost always end up doing).

Here it is NOW

Here's what it looked like before

I like how it turned out

Here's the close up

The lamp beneath the shade used to be bronze and I sprayed it white and replaced it's crystals with some I got from the thrift store. I think it's pretty funky, it reminds me a little of a genie's lamp.

I also wanted to share a close up of my curtain fabric with you and my personal decorating philosophy.
 I think every room needs a good dose of quirkiness.

My living room curtains have some hidden fun in them...

...all the people are skeletons.
 This toile is called Midnight Pastoral. I just love it!


Thanks for stoppin' in, hope to see you again real soon!

I'm glad that dreams can come true
