Ribbon Lamp

I have at least a dozen projects in the works. Always have, probably always will. This one I've had in my head for over 8 months.

It took me some time to find the lamp style that I wanted: brushed nickle with a circular shade. But I finally found a steal of a deal for the perfect lamp at Goodwill. Yeah!!!!
Sadly I didn't take any before pictures or pictures of me doing it, I was too excited to take the time (sorry folks!).

I started out with a new but bright green shade that didn't exactly go with my decor. So I took some white fabric I had and covered it. Nothing tricky, just used my handy dandy glue gun and scissors.

After it was covered, I went out and bought a bunch of different kinds of white ribbon, all pretty cheap stuff. Afterwords I thought it would also look kind of cool with cut up strips of fabric or tulle, which did use a little bit.
To cover with ribbon, all I did was cut enough length of ribbon to go around the lamp and tie in a double knot in the front. Do this about fifty times or so and it's covered! Could it get any easier??? Oh, then I just trimmed the ribbon edges.
I absolutely love it and looking at it every morning when I wake up.
