My Recent Crafty Projects :)

I love being crafty! Anyway this is what I did.

This is the lamp I redid. You should have seen the before picture! (I didn't get it saved) It's now dark red with brown accents. The shade is gray (it's the shade that came with it), but looks tan when the light is on. I'm proud of myself, I think it turned out good for a free lamp from Craig's List! How do you like the Christmas Card Wreath above it? I made it today. I used an embroidery hoop I got at a garage sale for 50 cents. The rest of the stuff I had. I wood glued mini clothespins to it, alternating in and out. I hung it with the red and cream gingham wired ribbon. The cards I have in it are some from last year and the year before. I can just add this years and replace the old ones.
