After we finished painting Mackenzie's room and the hubby was putting the blades back on her ceiling fan, I really didn't want to put back the UGLY light fixture (globe) that went with it! So I tried out the shade that was on one of her lamps and it worked perfectly and looked sooooo much better!
I've seen this done around blogland a lot and always loved the look! The hubs just added a washer and two nuts to secure it tightly and then we added the little finial back at the end. A much better look, don't ya think?
Moving on to the sconces over her bed...every girl loves a little zebra print! I found these cute shades in Hobby Lobby.
I even removed the fabric cord cover and replaced it with this plastic one and painted it the same color as the wall. I liked the look of the fabric one but it was a big dust collector!
Hope your all having a super weekend!! Next up... the full room reveal!
Luving the Zebra! I am looking at the ceiling fan in a whole new light now Martina... Hmmm... a shade instead of the frosted globe. I never liked the thing. Thanks for the inspiration. Cheers, Gee
Great idea for the ceiling fan! Ceiling fans aren't my favorite decor item, but they certainly are functional. We have three of them, and I'm going to see if a lampshade will fit on them. Thanks for the inspiration. Cute zebra shades, too.
Great idea on the shade...I want to spray the one in my sewing room to update it...I was thinking of getting new globes...this I like much better! Love the green chest too...I can't wait to see the finished room...you are so talented!!Have a happy Sunday!

You are just the smartest one, Martina! I love the lampshade on the ceiling fan! Are the bulbs just bare underneath or is something covering them? Love it! The little sconce is adorable and how great the plastic cover looks! You're an amazing gal and I'll bet you're tired now! :) Be a sweetie, Shelia :)
That shade on the fan looks terrific! And who doesn't love a little as zebra print?! Looking forward to the room reveal...I know it will be lovely.Jane
Martina, I so want to do this! I have been thinking about it for a while, specially for the one in my bedroom. I don't like the look of the fan, but it sure comes in handy in those hot Texas summer days. You guys did a great job. Thank you for the inspiration!
Genius, Martina! The added shade really "classes up" the fan, and I LOVE the sconces ... whimsical and sophisticated! I know your daughter is loving all of these fun changes in her room!
Hi Martina, the shade softens the look of that fan. Ceiling fans are a must here in the Deep South and I have a really ugly one in my kitchen. You have inspired me. hugs, olive
Shades on ceiling fans are all the rage, aren't they. And I can see why - they look great! Excellent finishing touch. Can't wait to see the reveal. liz
Martina what a wonderful look for your ceiling fan and those zebra print shades on your sconces are just darling! Wishing you a wonderful week! XO Barbara
Those are some great ideas with lighting! The lampshade really adds a more updated look to your ceiling fan. Those cord covers are great aren't they? I like how you used it on that wall sconce. I've used it before with cords against our baseboards.

Hey Martina! Good call on putting the shade instead of the original globe. I actually did the same thing with my ceiling fan, but I went ahead and repainted the blades too. :) Maybe you could consider painting those blades in zebra print. Haha!

Like the majority of kinds of insurance policy, home insurance does not include create occasion which could occur at a home. For the home owner, it is very important understand what things house insurance coverage will not include in order to do something to get the extra insurance coverage needed. In most cases, a rider could be added to a house insurance coverage to deliver extra insurance coverage or even a distinct insurance policy can be purchased to cover a particular need. chwilówki One more problem that many auto insurance customers deal with is the fact that you will find simply too several insurance providers and if you were to check out each organization individually; it will take you a lot of time to just segregate the particular reliable companies from your fly simply by night operators then more to find the greatest rates. However if you approach a website that delivers auto insurance price comparison, nearly you get the cheapest prices but additionally with less businesses available it is easier to go through the credentials of every business.

I love fans! So useful during hot summer days. It's on my list to update a few with the drum shade. Looks great!
Nice looking! I have a sunroom fan we can't take down - need it in the summer. Need to add a light. Maybe a shade is the answer.
I hope you'll drop by to see My Daughter's Master Bath Redo - #83 at Met Monday.
