Simple Ribbon

I'm on a ribbon roll...excuse the pun.  Or obsessed with using my glue gun.  After adding grosgrain ribbon to the lampshade, I looked around the room, and saw these plain white storage boxes on my shelf.



So, I took my hot glue gun, and adhered some black and white ribbon (I bought quite a few from the 50% off sale at Michaels).

Here's the storage boxes with the added touch.


Simple update.

Simple (De)light- Reveal !

I was undecided with what colour to spray paint the base of my lamp...which I originally wanted  to look like this.  



I might still paint it in the future, but looking at the lamp in the room, I thought it needed something dark to anchor all the light colours in the room.  I did, however, want to add a little something to the lampshade to give it more presence (and to hide a little dent).

So, I hot glued grosgrain ribbon I bought during their 50% off ribbon sale at Michaels.
Make sure that when you measure the ribbon
around the perimeter, that you have lots of "extra"
ribbon to fold for a neater edge.


Here's the updated lamp in the room.



Simply delightful.
