A few weeks ago I changed out some lamp shades to burlap shades I found at Target. They were very reasonable and I liked the tan color of them. You already saw one of them when I posted about my side table that you can read here.
I have a floor lamp and the burlap shade really looks good with it.
Have you ever wondered what this wall looks like when the photo isn’t cropped?
Not much of a wall huh? But you can see all that trim I need to paint. I finally read how I am going to change up those beams without sanding them. This will happen in 2012 if it kills me.
Here’s the entire floor lamp. I promise everything doesn’t look as junky in person as it does in this photo.
I also added a lamp with a new shade to my sofa table.
You can see both lamps in this next photo.
A close up of the lamp and my dust. Would you believe me if I told you I dusted just 2 days ago?
The shade is really darker, but the sunlight is making it look lighter.
Here’s my lamp on the side table I redid a few weeks ago.
I like the cohesiveness of all the same lamp shades in my family room and the nice glow that is let off when the light is turned on.
The texture really shows through the light.
I will be starting on my son’s room soon. I have been spending money on things that will look terrible if we don’t paint in there so it looks like lots of painting is in my future. Maybe I will even get to that trim and those beams in the family room sooner than later.
