Bee happy .... red and white spot shelves now in use

My red and white spot shelves now have a purpose.
 
 
They are in the guest bedroom displaying pretty wares.




 
I also want to share with you my newly covered lamp shade.

 
It is a Laura Ashley base and shade but I got fed up of the pink shade so decided to re-cover it with fabric to match the guest bedroom.
 
I chose Cath Kidston red and white star fabric for the re-covering job.

 
I got out my trusty glue gun and just glued the star fabric over the shade after cutting the fabric to size.
 
I am really pleased with the transformation and the lamp looks so much better for a change.
 
Have you changed anything lately?

  13. I love that lamp! I can't believe you just used a glue gun, I thought it was a complicated process to cover a shade so I've never tried. You've definitely inspired me now. Your house guests are in for a treat when they come to stay, the shelves look really lovely.xx

  14. P.S. Deb...I forgot to mention that I love the way your shelves look all filled with you cheerful goodies. Wouldn't it be fun when a guest stays to have a little welcoming gift wrapped and labeled in one of those cubbies?

    Hugs,
    Marianne
