So back when I posted this little blurb about dyeing lampshades I was a little skeptical if I could pull it off or not. But I decided to give it a go. Worst case scenario I would have to buy a new $9 lampshade from Target, but best case scenario it would work and I'd have a fun new lampshade.
OK, well its not as pretty as this professional orange lampshade- but I'm really happy with the results.
I'll share with you the results and a few tips and tricks for dyeing on Monday.
Happy weekend everyone!

cant wait to see what you did, but Im sure it will be great, you are a handy gal :)
LOVE the wallpaper!
i never even thought of dying a lampshade, does it look good when the light is on? I tried spray painting a lampshade once and it was a complete disaster. if any spot absorbed more paint it would show as a big dot as soon as the light was on.
I am so excited to see the results!
I do need a tutorial on anything as beautiful as this orange lampshade!

Oh gosh, can't wait to see it! The process just sounds hard, please let it be easy. :)
Can't wait til Monday!

i was about to get very, very jealous of your zebra wallpaper, until you said that this wasn't your house!
Awesome! Perfect timing, as I'm out of options for the shape/color of shade I need (read: impossible to get in Brazil)
Can't wait!
I can't wait to see it! I have two shades I've been thinking of covering with fabric but dyeing seems less painful (I don't trust myself with a glue gun.)
Gorgeous!
