Craft Corner

I know several of you who are reading this have craftiness coming out your ears! I've never really prided myself on being one of those people. Don't get me wrong, I do have my moments! I recently had one of those rare moments and was so pleased with how it turned out, that I wanted to share it with you. This is a lamp that I bought 8 years ago at a dollar store to use in my classroom my first year of teaching. I think I paid about $3 for it!During my teaching years it was always in my classroom, but since I've become a stay-at-home-mom, it's been in Landon's room. We're hoping Landon will be moving to a big boy bed soon so I've been ordering some new items to add to his sports-themed room. One of these items is a basketball lamp. So, the dollar store lamp has been relocated to the playroom! But, being in such a colorful room, it seemed rather drab. I went to ehow.com and learned how to give my lamp a make-over!
