It had a black and white toile shade (which is cute, but not my decor) and I changed it to a red shade.

I was thinking of having it in my bedroom! I got the thread, ready to make my blue toile fabric into things! Those 20 + yards have been here for at least 5 or 6 years! I bought it on sale. Hope you find some black toile on sale for your stash! Love your daughter reused the canvas. I have a picture in my scanner waiting to email to you. Hubby got to get in the back on the floor to unhook my camera, to scanner. I would never get up! I found the French plates and fell in love, the the black transfer! I kept telling myself, you have enough dishes, just buy the salad plate and make a different table setting! After getting home, I had some extra money come in, If I could have gone back I bought the dinner plate. I stayed in bed a week from that outing! lolLady Katherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06533249224991345863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6419684017931883072.post-19599212666382037182009-05-25T08:09:16.068-07:002009-05-25T08:09:16.068-07:00Fabulous job on the lamp!!
