Craft time!

Monday is my day to clean, do laundry and just get things ready for the week but today I wanted to add in something fun!

I told Brent I was going to make a lamp shade out of coffee filters ... he looked at me like I was crazy! 
But I saw on a blog someone who did it, and it turned out sooo cute!

Craft: Lamp shade out of coffee filters

How to:
1-Fold the Coffee Filter in half
2- Fold the coffee filter in thirds
3- Fold the coffee filter in half from bottom to top
4 -The bottom half is what is glued down to the shade so the "flower" stands up

After over 200 coffee filters later it was done.. and I LOVE IT!
It turned out really cute! I think im gonna make one for our room!
If you have any questions on how to make one let me know!
Love,
The Penzo's
