In fact, if you can make the light rotate..LOL..bet you will love the lighthouse after that..haha!Sans!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07142349451568183257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7249107157438303346.post-41528704798822910932009-07-29T09:14:18.085-04:002009-07-29T09:14:18.085-04:00A lamp would be neat!

Were you thinking of a lamp with a shade on top or of having the light shine where a beacon in a real light house shines?Dehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14913354060868655220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7249107157438303346.post-39445221767571350502009-07-29T08:35:34.629-04:002009-07-29T08:35:34.629-04:00When I upholstered the sofa I just left the fabric...When I upholstered the sofa I just left the fabric purposely loose. I stitched gathers at the arms to allow extra fabric. I think that you could make a throw style slipcover with a large square of cotton fabric and lightly glue it in place in the areas you would tuck in a real slipcover. The fabric would need to be very soft. An old handkerchief or scraps from a well-worn man's dress shirt would be a couple of sources.Dehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14913354060868655220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7249107157438303346.post-57697641463044718522009-07-29T06:10:40.310-04:002009-07-29T06:10:40.310-04:00Love what you did with the table legs!

Found some ideas there.<br />How did you make your slipcovered sofa? I made a white chair yesterday and it didn't turn out very nice. I think it needs a slipcover!Kathihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04231703268144400867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7249107157438303346.post-74695034624539732122009-07-28T23:43:17.163-04:002009-07-28T23:43:17.163-04:00It will be fun to make the light house into a lamp...It will be fun to make the light house into a lamp :)!Sans!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07142349451568183257noreply@blogger.com
