I upcycled this old lamp from my parents today. Quick, inexpensive and pretty, such a fun thing to do! It took no longer than 30 minutes and all I used was a sheet of handmade paper bought in a stationary store and double-sided adhesive tape.
The paper was beautiful and not expensive at all.
Finding the right size for the pattern was a little tricky. Make sure your sheet of paper is big enough!
