New lights

After a long wait Lombok finally called to let us know our lamp had arrived. Obviously I had to go and get it immediately. To my surprise the lamp was a bit on the heavy side. I got it out of the shop but quickly decided I needed assistance. A quick call and half an hour later hubby was there to pick me and the lamp up with the car.

Hubby continued to be a darling and spent Saturday afternoon fitting the lamp in our music room. Success! The lamp looks great!

The rest of the weekend I spent finalising my lampshade project. It seemed a bit difficult to find the perfect shade so I decided to make my own. How hard could it be?

Well, I've kind of lost the feeling in my fingertips. The sewing was pretty tough from time to time But the shade is finished. A bit wonky, but that was part of the plan ;-)
