$3.00
1 Hour
Easy
Cover a lamp shade with a sweater. I used hot glue to glue the sweater onto the lamp shade then added decorative ribbon and a bow to match. I found the lamp and sweater at a local thrift shop for a total of $4!

    What do you do with the arm holes? I don’t see a tutorial. If there is one I am missing it.

    I am redoing a floor lamp, replacing the wiring & painting it. The shade is huge & the fabric is rotted. I like this idea & it's a good thing that I'm huge, too, so I think that I'll be able to find a sweater to complete the task. Thanks for the idea.
