A little parcel dropped through my door this morning which kick started my mojo back into life with a passion. That little parcel contained some of the new Melody Miller Ruby Star Sparkle, which had barely been unpacked in the shop before it was cut and winging its way to me - thanks Annie!
I knew I couldn't wait to make something with it and then my eyes lit upon the lampshade kit and the neurons started zapping....
This print was made to be turned into a lampshade, although I could do with a better stand. So now my bedroom has a little sparkle of the Melody kind. I don't think my pics do the sparkly words justice.

I can see these lampshades getting a little addictive, they are quick and easy to make when you need a fast crafty fix. Just need to order another couple of lampshade drums now so I can make the patchwork version I was meant to be doing ;-)
I love it! Now I want to cover all the lampshades in my house in Melody Miller fabric!
ReplyDeleteThis looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteMmm lovely. I've never made a lampshade before so know nothing but there are always lots of old shades in my local charity shop, could you just remove the old fabric and replace it? Save some pennies (which could be spent on fabric!)
