This project has been an ongoing struggle for me. I love the 16x6 shade from IKEA. I peeled the original fabric off to replace it with my hand printed cotton...but that was too dark. We have so little light in the winter it is great to leave on as a nightlight for guests, to make coffee by or come home to. Playing around on the Internet I found a site that inspired me.
Approachable Art
I took my last piece of organza, dyed it and randomly ran thread through it to get a bunched look. I think I would like it better if I had used more organza and had straighter lines in the threading. Hubby thinks it needs embellished...fiber or such added to it. I have more organza on the way...so we will see what comes of it.
