As I was shopping Lowe's this past summer, I ran across a clearance table loaded with red and black chandelier shades and several colors of chandelier chain socks.
Are you ready for the price?
29¢!
That's right only 29¢ for each shade and the socks were only 18¢ each! How could a sane person pass that up? Well, I did pass up the red shades since my chandelier over my dining table already had red shades on it.
Knowing me, I couldn't leave the black shades plain! What I did was simply used some clear stamps from my scrapbooking supplies and white scrapbooking ink.
