Hello Everyone!!!
It's been awhile since I've posted...but I sure have been workin' on things.
Here's one of the things I'm workin' on now. It's not all the way done...kinda wanted to give ya a sneak peak.
Anyway...I found these 2 shades at the GW for 2.00 each....I've been lookin' for something to change the way my lights above my sink in my kitchen look. I couldn't believe I found 2 of the same. That never happens for me.
Plus, they are the perfect size for my lights
Here's a before look of my windows and lights. Sorry the pic. is so dark...but you get the idea. If you look real close...you can see my UGLY lights under my curtains. Curtains are going too.
Here's the finished shade. I used my Plaid FolkArt Oak stain. I used it as though it was paint. I painted 2 coats of the stain...letting it dry in between coats. Then I made a template to trace my star on to the shade...painted that with the Plaid Apple Barrel Barn Red paint.
Hope ya like my sneak peak!!

Here's a Better pic...(took it at night). I still need to finish my curtains. Hoping to get those done tonight.
I'll post more pics once I get the curtains done too.
Hope ya like my sneak peak!!
Have a Wonderful Evening!!!
