When I was a little girl, Sunday school class often involved a Bible story with felt cut outs that represented parts of the story and they were placed on the board as the story was told. I was always mesmerized with these lessons and loved if I was called to help place the felt pieces onto the board.
Sometimes my mind is blank and empty and it scares the bejeezes out of me. I think oh my gosh, “ How will I blog if I have nothing!?!” And then there are times that my mind is so full of ideas that it just won’t quit. This weekend is one of those times. I had a great idea to use felt silhouettes on a lamp shade so that it can change with the seasons, holidays or mood. It could be so fun for a kids room too!
Ok are you ready to see what I am talking about? I am pretty excited to show you because I think it is so fun and easy.
Here is a plain lamp shade.
Doesn’t stop you in your tracks does it?
So with some felt pieces and silhouettes (I googled silhouettes for whatever shape I wanted such as “bird silhouette”),
you can have a lamp shade that looks like this.
These stayed on for hours until I removed them so the idea works.
Want to see more?
How about a pine cone?
A pumpkin.
And the ever popular bird on a branch.
I love it even more with the lamp turned on.
I hope you think this is as fun as I do.
Thanks for stopping by.
