m Doggy Dish Towel Into A Sweet Lamp Shade This gingham doggy dish towel has a new home, it is now part of a lampshade along with other darling retro textiles.
As you already know, the Kitschy Collector is always on the look out for news ways to up-cycle vintage dry goods. And for sure, a lot of handiwork went into these fabulous lampshades.
Introducing Sassy Shades
This lampshade project was found at Sassy Shades on Etsy.com. Handmade from a red and white embroidered towel, this pooch towel is accompanied by side panels of blue, yellow, red and green stripes and a back panel of red gingham.
Add A Whimsical Touch With Colorful Vintage Aceessories
I can picture this adorable lamp in a vintage inspired baby nursery, whimsical den, bedroom or
even kitchen setting. And see how lovely stripes and gingham go together. The doggy towel can be the beginning of a lovely theme to build a room around.
