Lamp Shade Shadow DIY
1. Find a graphic you like. I found a Peter Pan that looked somewhat "suspended" in the air.
2. Go into your photo editing software. The most basic will work - even the one that comes free on your computer (any of the free phone apps work as well - just email it to yourself once you edit the graphic). Turn the "brightness" all the way down until the graphic is now black. Size and print on regular paper.
3. Cut around the edges exactly (you don't want any white paper showing) and place inside your lamp shade. I had to use a couple dabs of elmers glue that I smeared on the paper. Make sure the glue is very thin if you use it so you won't see it on the "shadow".
Voila! It really is adorable and ours in on a floor lamp so it looks like Peter is looking down on Milo. So sweet.
