  the sun break through late this morning.

We were all so excited that I grabbed some ice-cream pink fabric to use as lampshades.  We made these lampshades in a white and pink very textured fabric, and I reminded all the in 2 weeks time it will be Summer!

Clock Lampshade

For some time now, I wanted to make a clock lampshade.  Space is always a problem and why not combine a clock and a lampshade?

I bought the watch-works.
