Neon String Wrapped Light

 I have seen lots of wrapped cord light fittings and thought I would give it a try with this lovely

 neon string.  I simply used double sided tape to hold the string in place.

 Works great...now where to hang it?

I just made this for a bit of fun, so I don't want to make it a permanent fixture.  I think hanging it over the corner of this mirror in my dressing room will work well for now.

Neon string .....
double sided tape....
endless possibilities.

Wooly Warmer Tea Lights

It is winter now, and I love to lite tea lights at night once the kids have gone to bed.  

The more summery doily ones were not cutting it, so I decided to make some wintery wooly ones instead.

I got some Ikea glasses, some doubled sided tape and some good quality fluffy wool.....

Good fluffy, proper wool, with some other mixes
seems the best for the most cozy look.

I love the neon pink fuzzy wool...so cozy.

They look lovely lit up at night! 

Even a very thin Angora yarn can look amazing carefully spun around the glass.  I think I might make some more of these.

Revamp a Lamp

A client had this quite unique looking retro lamp, 

but she really liked the dual wooden and ceramic base.

Instead of painting it.....

A Funky New Lamp Shade does the trick

I covered the lamp shade with some quality black fabric....

and the outcome,

she was really pleased with.

Pink Wire Lamp Frame

I found this old wire lampshade and removed all the fabric. 

I spray painted it Pink.

 I made my own light fitting.... since they don't sell them like this.

and...

Voila!!

Super cute ...

and a bit different in Kayla's Room.
