Trim A Lampshade With Ribbon.<\/span> \u00a0When Jordan and I created an attractive <a title=\"New and Improved Laundry Area\" href=\"http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/2013\/01\/29\/new-and-improved-laundry-area\/\">laundry area<\/a> for her a few weeks ago, one of the things we needed to do was cover a bare light bulb with a shade. \u00a0Keeping in mind that our goal was to use as much as we could of what she already had on hand and to keep within a budget, we took a lampshade from a<a href=\"http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/2012\/01\/23\/watching-paint-dry-part-2\/\"> lamp that we made for the beer crawl<\/a> she and Mr. Spring had last year.<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:

\u00a0Their lampshade was a drum shade, and so the top and the bottom were the same size, and consequently,\u00a0their ribbon did not pucker the way ours did. \u00a0Our lampshade was smaller at the top then at the bottom, and so the ribbon didn&#8217;t fit as well. \u00a0That&#8217;s okay, though. \u00a0We were using what we had, and \u00a0keeping in mind that it was an major improvement over a bare light bulb.<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/2013\/02\/11\/young-house-love-week-day-2\/laundry-shade-1024x682\/\" rel=\"attachment
