Earlier this week, I showed off a lovely vintage hat and pink lamp from Saturday's thrifty purchases.
The lamp is going in the treehouse and I decided the creamy/white shade needed a bit of a makeover.
I started by stripping all the flowers from my pink hat.
I then added a layer of lace and trim around the top and base of the shade with my hot glue gun.
I then added the silk flowers around the rim of the shade with my hot glue gun.
It's so pretty now, I think I might just want to keep it for myself.I did promise it to the girls for their treehouse.
And just wait to you see what I did with those buttons.
I promise to show off those later this week too!
Happy crafting!Linking up with

Kim how cute is that lace with the light coming through? Genius again...never would have thought of that...I love millinery and would put it on everything if I could. So cute....waiting patiently for button makeover. Smiles...teenager's mom too...Renee
