I love the way this shade turned out! It was so easy to make. I really like the way the birds stand out when the lamp is lit.

This is the back side..isn't it cute? There is a tiny bird and nest with the words "nesting" under the nest and bird.

I am making another birdhouse right now...should be finished in a few days.
P.S. I did a post on the Home Goods blog with easy instructions to create this lampshade. Check it out if you have time!

50 fun creative friends stopped by to say,:
That is sooooo adorable, honey! I love birds nests. I'm doing a painting now of a bird nest. I'm not very good but my heart loves doing it. I'll show it when I'm done.
SMooches,

Gorgeous lamp. Love the fabric. Mimi
How precious! Great job Penny! ♥ Diane
Love the lampshade...did you enjoy making it as much as I just did making mine...I was going to use the same type of trim around top and bottom but to save money on buying the trim I figured out how to use the fabric to trim it...I can't wait to try my hand at another....Sue.
That lamp is adorable! What a fabulous idea!
I love the aqua and how the light looks under the fabric shade! Beautiful Penny:>)
i love your bird lamp, have been visiting your blog and drooling in the key board over your works. I think this lamp might be my fave.

Just lovely Penny... I also like the chandelier from the last post as well.

Penny your sense of design is gorgeous. The way you chose just the right color blue to pick out the bird on your piece perfectly. I love the way this turned out also. What I wouldn't give to peek inside your workshop and marvel at your mosaics.

So inspiring. I am sooo drawn to mosaics and I just recently figured out why... when I was a little girl in Spain I was surrounded by it in benches, fountains and walls. I didn't put it all together until a couple of months ago!
Just love all you do!
That is some major cuteness, Penny! Major!

Hi nPenny
I saw this lamp on your Home Goods post but these photos are even bigger and make it easier to see all the detail. I love how you were able to keep the detail of the bird and nest and the cute little insigna on the back! It's really charming.
Hugs, Pat

How beautiful! What an amazing idea! I've been wanting to do some mosaics myself but haven't had the time to sit down, learn it and do it. But you are inspiring me, so this will definitely be put on my future projects list. So glad you stopped by. By the way, I am in love with your blog page background!
I LOVE this one. I am really into birds and nests right now. So creative...and I like the "nesting" one cleverly included.
