#77 a craft project

I needed a bedside lamp for my room so I can read and not have the overhead light blaring all night long (since I have been known to fall asleep reading). I didn't want to spend a fortune so this is where I decided being crafty would come in handy.
The lamp didn't have a shade orginally and was only $4 at the antique store. I also found the shade there but it was stark white, I hated it but for $1.50 who could turn it down. To darken up the shade I did a coffee stain, then to add a bit of wild I added the leopard trim. Now I have the perfect lamp and the total cost was maybe $8.00 counting taxes.
