My sister has covered a lot of shades and she says its easy. I say,then,you do it. Stop by any time.

Would like to know more. Great post. <br /><br />By the way, I would love to see you do a post on your precious dog.

I'll be photographing and posting the next steps soon. <br /><br />We're just getting over a terrible bout of the flu, that turned into an upper respiratory month-long coughing spell. Feeling much better this week. <br /><br />I'm enjoying reading your blog. <br /><br />Mrs. DMrs. Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07556632048798711513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5183416806466219655.post-36121177254576566942011-03-21T20:17:11.800-05:002011-03-21T20:17:11.800-05:00Hello Pam,

At first glance and with your comment...Hello Linda,<br />At first glance and with your comment of it being dry and crunchy, I thought that your lamp shade was made of Parchment or Vellum, not the paper, the animal skin.<br />Anyway, you are better off with using fabric to recover this amazing find.

But having seen what miracles you have done with other lampshades, your friend Pam will receive a beautiful, stunning lamp for her new home! :-)<br /><br />-PamPam of Eastlake Victorianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18149348967860577425noreply@blogger.com
