happy friday.

another week- flew by.  this is the weekend of finishing projects for me.  for starters, let's talk lamps.
Remember this beaut?

 Well... I have this shade in my living room and decided it could use some sprucing.

So - I visited my local Hancock and got a few fabrics from the remnants bin. Picked out 3 fabric sections for under $3.  The first was a felt like fabric.  I cut small circles out of this one... 

 Then, I folded the circle in half, the in half again, and clipped the point off of the folded fabric.   This allowed for a flat surface for me to apply hot glue to.  So, I glued the flat surface to a circle cut out, starting in the center and working my way out...

this was the finished first flower.... 

And here it is in relation to the shade... 

I went with this method from memory of random flower research.  But... decided it didn't have the impact I needed.  So, I refreshed my memory by visiting Jones Design Company and remembered to do this ... 

cut out flower shapes.  this is fabric #2.  semi- linen

and I combined the cut out flowers with the cut out circles for this flower... 

Anyway, I repeated method one to made a linen smaller flower and combined the 3 to make this cluster...

extremely pleased.  i'm ready to put flowers on everything.  

Welp. It's Friday. So. hopefully I'll have more to come.... until then, cheers!
