Maybe this would be a great giveaway too. I could give one away on my blog and you could decorate it for your home. I might just get some inspiration this way. One reason I have not made any in such a long time, is we have a second home up for sale and once it sales, I want to pay someone to come in and paint this house. I want color. When we purchased this house 2 years ago, it was painted all tan and white trim. It looks good, but I want color. So this is why I am having such time at deciding what I want to do with this shade.. Maybe I should put it up until we get to paint the house. It might not match if I make it now. I want to make something besides cards. Do you ever feel this way. Maybe the new cake cartridges will have some nice borders I can use.
Who would like to have one? They are pretty easy to glue to those wire frames. You could do what I may bave too, and use an old lamp shade from a yard sale, goodwill, etc...If these rug rats did not keep me so busy, I might would have time to go find one, lol. A few years ago, I added butterflies and ribbon with dangling beads for Caitlin's room. It is real girly

You always come up with such great ideas!!! I would never have thought to do this but, I may now have to try. What cartridge did you use? You got me when you said you added beads to one for your grand daughter.
Take care
what a great idea! Now you have to hit the garage sales and find the shade bones! What size paper did you use to start with?
My granddaughter's was much smaller. It was that ribbon with beads that dangle down. I add that to the bottom. She took and glued butterflies to it herself. It is cute.
Maybe try a Big Lots, they always have finds in there. Or try a freecycle group on yahoo.
What a great idea!
