Basically I wrote a really big chunk of the book and came up with most of my ideas for how the book would come together within about a week.
Then I pressed it onto the lamp and we were all set!.If you follow me on Instagram, then you may have seen how last week I bought 87 different (slight exaggeration) lamp shades from Target and I was trying to decide which was best.
A lot of you loved the chevron shade, and I did too, but in the end the grayish navy shade seemed like the best choice for what I was going for in here.Plus Kennedy said no to the chevron and she pretty much has veto power in decisions involving the room at this point.It’s her little brother, after all!.
We’ve tried to make other lamps before and this was definitely our most successful attempt to date.What we learned is that you really need to focus on how tall the lamp will be in the end and compare that to the size of shade you’d like to use.
I just measured the height of another lamp in the house that had the same size of shade that I had in mind for this project and made my lamp exactly that height.
Worked like a charm!.-Chili over cornbread.
-Bell peppers stuffed with chili.-Add some extra tomato sauce and serve it over buns to make sloppy joes.
-Chili over broccoli.-Chili hot dogs.
