Sequins & Ornate

Remember that really fabulous ornate mirror I posted about here.... well I went ahead and ordered it, and just received it a week ago. I have it in my room, propped up on my shelf for now, but it probably won't stay there forever...I just really love it!




I also just received my new sequined peach mini skirt in the mail, and it is so sparkly and girly!! I love it and it was only $22!! score one for me :) can't wait for a reason to get dolled up!

What's new...DIY lamp shade

With the cold weather still looming I can't quite set up shop and spray paint to my hearts content...which to be quite honest sucks! I am going through spray painting withdrawal and my projects are all on the back burner. As a way to supress my craft cravings I resorted to painting with yup you guessed it acrylics!

I wanted a reading floor lamp in my room by my reading chair. I made several trips to HomeSense but hadn't quite found what I was looking for (altough I did pick up a great new mirror which you can see in the after pictures). I went online shopping, I did find a few things I liked but they were way out of my price range.

I was feeling hopeless when I remembered that I had this old Ikea floor lamp in off white that had been gifted to me. Off I went with my black acrylic paint and here is the result:

Here is the original lamp
