Burlap projects cont.....
My last post was all about decorating with burlap.
I recently did our bar stools over, and thought I would continue with another small project. I would like to tell you it was fast and easy, however I would be lying.
This project popped into my head when I woke up this morning.
Thought I would break out the mod podge..and get started.
First I cut my rice bags to size the lamp shade.
I knew this would NOT be a perfect project, because if you know me, they never are perfect..bad on perfect, no perfectionist here.
Jack saw this project drying (dripping in the sink) He said Oh Mom that is pretty cool!
Project is still wet, could not wait to take pictures....another bad trait, NOT patient at all.
I used some upholstery tacks just for a touch of embellishment.
At the end of the day, and yes I say end of the day, because I think this project took me all day, I am pretty happy with it. I will see what Mike thinks when He gets home from work.
Speaking of work, I am still a scentsy rep and would love for you to check out my site.
Scentsy is a wickless burner, which means NO FLAME, NO FIRE!
With such beautiful scents and burners to choose from, it certainly is a great accessory to any home.
Some of my blogging friends are coming up for some new scents...

That is so cute Debbie. Don't you love when things pop in you head?
Of course, you have a few project swirling around in that head. I'm not at all surprised. Of course, I'm up for another copy cat. In fact, I think I might already have my picture picked out. Guess you will have to wait. I'm not really bored, except for the fact about not really having anything to post today. I'm trying to keep myself busy as I have my long over due Physical at the docs on Wednesday. Got any overnight fixes? I think I'm going to be in trouble...eeeeks...giggle...
Debbie, that lamp turned out DARLING!!! I could see it in a high end boutique, with a high end price tag taboot!!!
That lamp is so cute. I wish I were that creative. I don't think I've ever had an idea pop into my head like that.
Hi Debbie! The lampshade is adorable. If hubby doesn't like it you can send it my way.
xo,
Sherry
I love your lampshade...too cute!!
Oh I love it. Your shade is fantastic. Such a creative idea. I also love, love, love that rooster. Hugs, Marty
Great idea - You did good! Don't want to think about what you would pay in a shop for that.
Debbie, what a cute lampshade! I love burlap...thinking about incorporating it in a dresser...I'm still playing with the idea. I've seen burlap shades @ local boutiques for $200+!!! Great job!
I love this, Debbie! It looks perfect with the rooster lamp!
XO,
Jane
Oh Debbie, I love this burlap project! I have a rooster lamp just waiting for a shade re-do! You just inspired me.
Enjoy your evening,

Wow! I love it! The shade looks perfect with the rooster lamp and I love that rooster canvas in the background.... these rice grain sacks are so lovely Debbie with all the different colors in them. I'm loving how creatively you are using them. Have a lovely evening!~Poppy

Such a cute project! Love the little extra bling of the upholstery tacks. Thanks for sharing.
Loving the lamp shade Debbie. Maybe this is what I need to do instead of trying to cut the burlap to fit the shade.
That is beyond cute!!!! Debbie, you are so stinking clever! I love it!
I see you found a great use for that (Bag off Ebay). It looks wonderful and fits right in with the rest of the decor:)

LOVE the lampshade Debbie!!
I've been working on a couple lampshades recently. They are taking forever too. And it would have been nice if I had made sure the shade was the right size for the lamps BEFORE I started them. Why do I do that kind of stuff! LOL
I want to be you when I grow up! LOL
what a cute idea
Debbie, that is SO cute...really turned out fabulous!
Debbie, That was very smart. They look great on that lamp shade!
Sherry
Simple materials and a simple idea and yet you ended up with a sophisticated look! Great.
Oh Debbie it's fantastic! I love it :)
Debbie- You did a great job!
Kristin
Great job, this lamp looks so great! The rooster print behind the lamp is taking my breath away such a beautiful print.
Oh that is just adorable! I love how it turned out! Wonderful creativity Deb!
Cindy

I love the lampshade Debbie, the colors are perfect!
Hi Debbie, I love the lampshade! What a great way to recycle old rice bags. I am loving burlap lately. Just hung some burlap curtains in my family room.
HI, Debbie! I'm new to your site and love everything! I have gotten the creative bug again! Thank you!
fabulous, you are very creative~
Do you know how much you would have paid for that custom lamp shade in a designer store? Good job, love it.
How cool is this? Saw the stools first and was super impressed . . . .now this!! You are awesome Debbie!!
Eeeek! Love this so much!
LOVE this Debbie! I have a rooster lamp who needs some shade loving! Can I send him to you!?Ha! Also love your rooster print hanging on the wall!
I love the way this came out. LOVE! I think the stool are really cute. I wish I could find some sacks with great graphics like those. I have some, but none that are so colorful!
Don't know how I missed this except I've been out of it this week. It's adorable! Love the look by your big picture.
