everybody at his errand and we're gonna do a little bit of some fun revamp on a lamp so my daughter had this cute little lampshade that went with his bottom of a lamp that the lamp itself died it fell over it croaked there was no way to fix it but the lampshade was perfectly fine and then I happen to find another small lamp that still functions great but I want to put the two together and right now they so matching and she's not so a little girl anymore so what we are going to do is we're going to take a couple of different paints because these are two colors that she fell in love with and we're gonna do the base of the lamp in the teal color and then the top of the lamp shade in the pink I'm sure I have enough on here and they're just acrylic paints this is a teller angels this one's a Martha Stewart and then we're gonna have some fun playing with flowers that we got from petal ooh and also some foil to paper from Renia but the first step is to paint so let's speed that up okay so we are on to part two and as my lamp shade and lamp are drying because I put two coats on both pieces with pink and with teal I am arranging a series of flowers I got some petal ooh so one of the sets of flowers is this set of pink as you can see over here and they're all loose flowers which means you can layer them up and do whatever you wish and these are gonna go on the lampshade and kind of surround and lift it up real things so it's not a hundred percent dry but these flowers are gonna kind of go along here and and I also got a larger pack and this pack right here this one has this is 50 pieces Ortman that had a whole bunch of really super giant flowers and I think I'm gonna avoid them it also had some greens and I think I'm gonna avoid the greens because my daughter this is for my daughter's room she was really into the she loves his color green and she loved the purples and the blues and obviously the pink so that's kind of the direction we're going with them so I even pulled out all the really large flowers these ones because they're just going to be too big I think so right now what I'm doing as I am laying out all the largest flowers and on top of that I have placed what's called the Renea foiled paper so I have taken two different colors empty in the blush and I've taken the fuchsia in both in the starstruck colors and I'm just coming in with two different punches and all I'm doing quickly punch super easy to punch and then taking that punch and I did this other punch here in the fuchsia star-struck and so I've already punched a whole bunch of these out the next step that I'm doing is I'm taking this especially one that looks with a call of retro flower and I'm just kind of smashing the ends together just to get a little bit of something fun going on and I'm creating some layered flowers so let's create one right here and I'm making sure that all my colors are a little different so I am taking the blue here and some of them have glitter on them and some of them don't I'm then taking the Renea flower placing that they and that I think I'm gonna take another little flower and placing or maybe I'll flip-flop it and put there any a flower at the very time and just kind of doing that and smash it I'm not looking for perfection here sorry if my kids are a little loud we are in the mist of Hurricane Harbor you hate now and it's a little bit crazy in my house because no hurricane I'm actually gonna try a smaller punch this is the same shape of flower but in a smaller sizes because the smallest flower I actually have these pink ones here are about the same size is there so I'm gonna sum up not every flowers in the be identical I think I'm gonna place this here and I'm gonna go for the smaller flower and it's gonna go in the center and one of the easiest things to do is just take the back of a pen or a pencil the back side of your paintbrush or something and you just push off this one's being a little stubborn and you just push it in and it's as simple as that now not every flower actually most the flowers I take that back probably going to have pink on pink on pink so another variation and then you just glue the whole thing I just let me do that and the glue one for you right now you take a large flower and if you notice I have two variations of larger flowers I have the one that looks like it's got many petals and then I also have this one it looks like it's got five and I'm gonna alternate between the two so take add some glue to this here put your first layer down and then I'm going to do the first pink layer and glue it down and just a good tacky glue is all you need I'm happened to be using hell more this time and the flowers came from petal ooh and it's just a matter of layering it all up I think I got a little bit of got left over there it goes just need to get it going and then now I'm gonna take my Renea foiled flower open it up and get it to be a little smash down later that there I'm gonna last a little bit and then we are gonna put a center in here now there were some centers but I have nowhere near enough that came with the pack and since I'm probably gonna be doing about 12 different flowers here I want them to least have somewhat of a similar center so we'll come back and do the center's a little bit and then just put this guy in here probably just a small pearl or something they're all similar and there is one of our first flowers now I'm going to come in and let's do one of these guys so I start with the purple base and let's layer it in with one of the other fun colors here and then I'm gonna take a pink let's go with this pink and there might be some leftover flowers I don't think I'm gonna use them all up there's pink right here now I'm gonna come in with this and again I'm just going to kind of smash it up a little bit and this is the fuchsia and the other flower I call the pointed flower versus the rounded flower punch that I have and also make sure that you miss align your flowers kind of off-center them a little bit push this in there was a mage a little bit of something to kind of work around and I always like doing this on the craft mat because sometimes those holes inside these flowers and then we are going to since I don't have a smaller version of that punch I only have a small version of this one coming in fine you could also come in and die-cut these as well and then just do the same to give it a nice small Center I could also that's a thought is I could alternate these so I could just to give them I think I don't like an idea put the other color flower in the middle here and the darker color flower so this would be fuchsia then blush and this is blush then fuchsia just to kind of change it up a little bit a little brighter something different and so every flower is going to end they're all going to have one two three layers of what I call the silk flowers and then two layers of the Renea filled punched flowers because this is just two versions of similar all same color tones and I'm going to keep on decorating all these up and we'll come back to it all the flowers are done now and what I've done is I pulled out some pretty fun little gems and I actually like those colors but I think I might reserve these ones for another part of what we're gonna do so I'm gonna take the pinks and just to be on the safe side I know they have kind of a backing on them I am going to add just a tiny bit more undo my glue adhesive to the back of each of my little gems just to give them a pretty little Center and so it's just it's barely gonna nestle in with that insert and that small little flower and just making sure it's in there it's gonna tie it all together give it a fun little Center kind of reform up the flowers again and just go ahead and do that for I have one two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve hours like I thought and I easily have at least twelve these gems with a couple left over so I'm going to go ahead and put the sender's know all right so I have these beautiful crystals and I thought I'd keep the bottom fairly planed and they're just all these really swirls and cool things and I thought I'd just kind of layer them around here to see if I can fix so now that this is completely dry I put two coats on to give it a really good base coat and just make sure that smooth covered one coat did an amazing job but I did too just to be on the safe side you do want to be careful when you're pulling them off to start with this guy here number one not sure if little pearl crystals off but two because you don't want to yank it apart so on the back side of this it is already adhesive it is already sticky but like I said it's not new and I don't want to lose its integrity and have it all off partway through when my daughter is using her Frannie lamp so I'm just coming in here and coming into little corners here and then as you can see I'm just sticking it on and it just makes it really pretty and really kind of shine and just have an extra special I can already tell I need a little something more up here fly a little more adhesive all the corners and look how pretty that already looks so gorgeous okay so I'm gonna keep on adding some more swirls I think I'm going to go ahead and try and gently lay it on and then work where I feel it's not sticking add some more he sits back about so one thing I'm doing right now is I'm taking it the last piece because three of them fit on both beautifully but I feel like I have a little bit gap here and even though this might be the back of the lamp I still want to make sure that every little inch is covered so I actually took the last piece and added an extra squirrel there because there's kind of a gap there and in a second swirl right in here so just cut off pieces in the last piece which I have left and I still have one full section I'm going to come into here and I'm going to add it in somehow I have Mindy here now what I might end up doing is cutting this little piece off so I can fit this guy in here and to rest a little bit better and then kind of amend so beautiful thing about these crystals is that you can tweak them to your liking so I just finished at the last little squirrels just took the last little pieces add another one in here you know kind of added another one that was right here added another one that coming down here kind of filling up the gaps and I think that looks really pretty now so that did not take and I could kind of pull off and put back on and the paint on this held wonderfully so I'm gonna clean up let's take it off sorry for starting to get a little dark behind me and getting a little shadowy um we are in the midst of Hurricane Harvey here and even though I'm in Austin we are still getting swamped with some rain and actually got a rain delay for school tomorrow so sorry I bought all that if it looks a little bit off or you hear some claps of thunder or kids screaming in the background because we're in the mist oh whoa being stuck in the house okay so my plan is is to take each of these and I'm okay if it goes a little bit lower than the actual edge of the lampshade and then just take them and start layering and I think I'm gonna try and alternate I need to count so I have these flowers that what I would call or there are the five pointers and I believe I only have four of those and then I have a whole bunch of these other ones but I don't want to put too matchy-matchy so if I put a purple one here I think I'm going to start off with like a lighter color and then I'm gonna come in let's say with the green one here and I'm trying to decide if I want to just overlap them and I'm thinking I like that I'm thinking I'm just going to avoid this little piece all together and then just really just coat the entire bottom and so for that we're just gonna get our blue out and I'm gonna make sure that I don't over do too many matching matches next to each other and go ahead and coat I chose it open they're nice blob of glue come in and place the first one and my goal is to kind of put the center right about where the center is of the flowers just so I have a good baseline about where I'm placing them all on and then I'd also don't see that edge and lip too bad either because I'm placing on time go in with my next flower and this time I'm gonna actually place it on to the flower itself because I don't want to cover up and I think I'm gonna flip this over so I can play and I know it looks kind of gross on the inside but nobody's ever going to see the inside and then just come in here place the next flower and I'm gonna let it dry upside down because I don't want that's why we put the flower I didn't like there's some glue on the inside I don't want my flowers to get smashed by resting on the table and now I'm gonna come in and go what's go we're going to put these so we have one two we're going to go with one of these ones now so I think I'm gonna try and do 2 and then 1 what I call the five point flowers and really layer them up nicely and beauty of this particular glue is it does have a little bit of some drying time and so I can still shift if I put them too close together and I'm running out of flowers I can always rearrange I did measure but just to be safe you okay so I misjudged of course and there is a little bit of a gap between some of these flowers and I really don't want to see a gap so what I'm going to do is I'm going to end up having to kind of tweak a little bit but not fully dry but they're getting there is I still had some of these silk flowers left in pink and what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna layer it with the silk flower actually I think I'm gonna do the four Renea foil and then a silk flower and then one of the smaller foil so I'm doing fuchsia and then a pink and then a blush and then finishing it off with a center because I have them and I have a whole bunch and there's no of other colors we're gonna use this pretty Center in here so the flower is gonna go like this one and then we're gonna do this one add one of these guys in here it's just going to a smaller flower and then what we're gonna do is we're going to stagger that about every second large flower we're gonna have a little flower just to give it some more volume in there and then this kind of ties in all the colors because now only one we're missing is purple but I'm fine with that so I'm going to finish making all of these and then I'm gonna attach them onto here so I'm going to end up doing is kind of a little bit of rearranging so right here is where one of these flowers it's gonna go just gives it something a little different so I can place one right now come in and pop that in there and just gives it's a little bit different and so I'm gonna flip this back over again finish these and glue them on all right so here we go here's what the lampshade looks like now got all the pretty flowers on there there's a little bit to glue here and there but it's starting to come off it's still kind of getting set and as it sets and they definitely give it overnight to fully set but it already looks very little girly in my mind for young girl not baby anymore or toddler I have these beautiful pearls that definitely match into the color scheme and again I'm looping this thing up and making it a grool glammy beautiful and I'm just gonna go across the top here and take my pearls right along the edge here so one of my little pearls fell off so I just cut out another section and I'm also just a tiny bit short and I think I can fit two little pearls my over cut but that's okay off of another strip and I'm just gonna squeeze these guys in here and so now that is done I've attached it to my lamp and you can see you can see the beautifulness here so thanks so much for stopping by and looking at how you can take a baby lampshade and a completely not related lamp bottom paint them decorate them up perfect for a little girl's room and this is what my daughter picked out so we went with her color scheme and I think she's gonna be pretty happy so thanks so much for stopping by and checking out my cycled lamp decor how to go from a JustFab and all supplies are listed below and I will see you guys again later I'm Thuy subscribe bye
