just Knock it off.

Okay, these crafting blogs are either drive me crazy with all of the awesome ideas, thinking I need to make this AND that... AND/OR break the bank thinking I need to make this AND that.

Well, the latest project that I wanted to try, I found over at Just a Girl blog where she took a shows how to make this darling Anthropology lampshade.

Anthropology is "trying" to sell theirs for $88.00!!!

No I don't think so!

So, with the help of Just a Girl, she teaches how to make your very own lamp shade for a lot less.


Here is my lampshade that I am going to "knock off " and transform into my very own creation.

(BTW-Dan bought me this lamp years ago for Christmas from Home Depot, not sure if they even have them anymore, but it was a shout out to where to might start your looking if you are in need of a floor lamp.)

So, with the directions I followed from Just a Girl blog, I was able to make my own "knock off" lampshade in a few hours and with only a few glue gun scars to show of.

TA-DA! From boring to Awesome!

AND it DIDN'T cost me $88.00! Here is the CSpringer with a price tag of less than $5.00 in supplies. I think I did a might fine job and when you think that you need something, just try to "Knock it off" instead!
