Lamp shade redo

My friend Jen from over at http://creating-with-the-js.blogspot.com/ gave me a plain white lamp shade to work my magic on.  This is what it looked like before. 


I added some black trim to the top and bottom with hot glue and I made a fabric flower from scraps of some leftover fabric. I added an antique button to the center of the flower and  glued the flower to the lamp shade with hot glue.


Here is the finished product.


Here is the shade sitting on top of a large candle holder just so you can see how it looks. I like how it looks next to my pottery barn knock off sheet music candle. (I'll post about the candle later)

This looks very nice. I especially like the antique button. I think that really sets it off. Thanks for sharing at our party this week.
