Halloween Lamp Shades and more!


Here are some fun ideas for vinyl...LAMPSHADES!

How fun is this? You can create a spooky or festive feel by adding vinyl to your lamp shades! You can create a silhouette feel by applying the vinyl on the inside of your shade....(use a low wattage bulb), or you can add color by applying the vinyl to the outside of the shade.

There are so many things you can apply...decorative elements, monograms and more! You can purchase these Halloween designs on the sidebar where you see the "Buy it now" button.

All designs are sized to fit an average shade. The vinyls are 9" tall but can be sized to fit any space! If you want different colors or designs, other than what is shown, feel free to email and let me know what you would like!

Finished Banquette







Here are the pics of the banquette! I built the frame and attached it from inside with L brackets instead of screwing right to that wall. This way if I need to move it or want a change, all I need to do is unscrew the brackets and remove the bench! (And if you know me at all you know that nothing ever stays the same in my house for too long! ) Although I do think this will be a permanent fixture! I also added a piano hinge and lids for storage.
It is so nice to have. I find the kids wanting to be in the kitchen with me more. It is so comfortable and inviting.
