A Lamp for my Little Lady

Once again I spent the day actually getting stuff done.  I put the crib together and got my lamp revamp all finished.  Here is the final result...

This is how I did it.  I started with this lovely lamp that has been sitting on the floor in the corner of my room for over a month... oops :)

After wiping off the dust I taped off the cord and electrical stuff on the top and gave it two good coats of Rust-Oleum Cardinal Red gloss spray paint.  Here it is drying...

Any fellow pregnant spray painters out there?? My hubby bought me this beautiful mask when we found out I was expecting.  It's great! I know it's not the cutest thing but I can't smell the spray paint at all.  I think I will keep using it even after the baby gets here.

While that was drying I started on the shade.  Remember THIS lamp revamp a few months back??

Well, I was actually given two of those shades and I thought the shape would be perfect and girly for her room.  Here is a before shot.

I went into lots of detail on my first lamp post so if you want specifics click HERE.

Here is my shade as I am pulling the new cover over.  I found this great chocolate brown and cream dot quilting fabric at Hobby Lobby that matches the bedding perfectly.

And here it is just before I added the bias tape.

 I added some super cute lace flowers to the front which I will give a tutorial on in my next post.

And here she is all finished up.  What do you think?? I love it in the room.  I probably could  have been a bit more precise with the dots on my bias tape but oh shwell!  Hope you like it!

 Thanks so much for stopping by!!
