We are on a final count down here, as our Ireland trip is fast approaching.
PINCH me, I really can’t believe it.
In the meantime, I want to share a cute, quick Spring embellished lamp.
You know I have a thing for embellishing lamp shades…
This one, however, was totally copied and inspired by a Facebook post that led me to a pin, that led me to this site
I just had to copy have it
After all I had everything on hand.
Seriously, look how cute that is.
Burlap,moss and eggs.
I just formed the moss into a nest, and hot glued it the burlap
Easter is just around the corner.
Can you believe that?
I added a little spring color to my Spring cloche
And of course, my mod podge recipe jar, got a little Springified
While I am at it…I never got a chance to show you my NEW OLD chippy cabinet that my FIL gave me some time ago.
NOW this is the real deal.
You can paint all you want, and try to make something look rustic and chippy, but I don’t think anything will ever come as close to this.
I know you have seen my stenciled tea towel a thousand and one times.
There it is, I spy my recent Mixed Media butterfly art that is aimlessly walking around with no where to go:)
Thanks for stopping by today.

How cute is that!! Ireland is coming soon!!! Woot woot!
Adorable lamp and WONDERFUL chippy chest!! Happy Spring!!
Cute and I love that chippy chest.
The lamp shade is all the newest rage for sure. I want to take the time and do one
Girl.. I will pinch you- but I want to come…can I come to Ireland? Loving this lampshade- oh yes – perfect!
That lampshade is super cute…love it and love that chippy cabinet!!! That certainly is the real deal!
I too just love the lamp!!
Debbie you are killing me with all of this Spring cuteness every day! I just thrifted some little Robin’s eggs in my post yesterday and this is SUCH a cute idea to maybe use them! And that chippy chest… wow. That is awesome.
xoxo,
Claire

So cute! You really have the “spring” going on now.
I can only imagine how excited you are for your trip! I so hope you’ll have an Irish Coffee or 3 for me while you’re there.

mmm… you bet I will Pat.
I like your shade Debbie. Awesome chippy piece from FIL too.
Wow, you’re going to Ireland! How exciting!!! Cute lamp:)
Cute lamp. I know you are so excited about your trip. St. Paddy’s Day in Ireland. How about that!
Can’t wait to see what you think of Ireland. One of my favourite places in the world.
how cute that is and easy peazy love the chest all chippy i must see that close up lol
The lamp is adorable! I completely agree that there is nothing like the real deal when it comes to old, chipping layers of paint. I have looked for that stencil in Hobby Lobby since I first saw it on your blog, but with no luck. I just love it and never tire of seeing the projects you’ve created with it.
You’ve inspired me to put some Spring touches in my home.
I’m so excited for you to go to Ireland….that’s on my bucket list since both of my grandmothers were half-Irish. Take lots of pictures so I can live vicariously through you!!
xo
Oohhh Ireland!! I’m so jealous! Have fun!!
Cute lamp embellishment! I really love your chippy chest of drawers. It would look *great* in our home! ;P
That lamp is too cute!
LOVE that lampshade! You must be getting REALLY excited for Ireland now!!
Didn’t know you were going to Ireland. I have been there twice and I can’t wait to go again. The people are wonderful and the food is great! If you go to Dublin get a ticket for the bus. You can go all over the City, stop wherever you can and get back on – one charge. Have a wonderful time!!!!
What a pretty Spring time vingnette!
Cute as a button! Yup- this just says spring and Debbie.
I sure wish spring weather would make its appearance. It’s been a long winter for a lot of us.
Cute Spring decoration on the lamp and that piece of furniture is perfect with the time-worn look. How lucky can you get? Have a fun and safe trip.

The lampshade is super sweet. So fresh and “Springy” for sure. That trip is fast approaching, you know these days, we blink and a week is gone.
I love your lamp and I am so glad that you are going to Ireland- I am so jealous- xo Diana
I love the lamp shade. I have 4000 boring ones around here that need a new spring “do”.
And the chippy cabinet is wonderful! You are right that it would be nearly impossible to replicate that.
Debbie, your lamp looks so pretty! What a beautiful idea! Your trip is almost here! I know you are excited! I attended a friend’s wedding in Ireland, many, many years ago and I fell in love with it. Beautiful country, great food and such nice people. You are going to have so much fun!
I remember seeing that cute lampshade on Chateu Chic’s blog. Your version is cute too! I bet you have a lot of craft materials on hand to make just about anything.
That is seriously cute Debbie!! And of course that chippy old cabinet is fabulous – you’ve got one great FIL!

Looks like you have hatched a new idea on a Spring lampshade! I crack myself up. (sorry, i need to go to bed)
That was cute Karen.
It turned out so cute! I love when I can create a pin I’ve pinned, and I will be pinning this. Thanks, Debbie!
It came out really cute. Just Loved it!!
