This is the Tutorial I did for my Blog Swap with Lori:

Hello ladies and any gents out there.  It is a pleasure to be here today.  Lori and I planned this weeks ago and then I ended up moving my blog to its own site and I was knee deep in the move and she was sweet enough to reschedule.  I think she was secretly afraid I might do a playdough craft and that wouldn’t be too impressive.

So you already know I moved my blog — you can find me at itssoverycheri, all week long. If you used to follow me, you need to RE-SIGN UP.  Google won’t let you take your followers with you.  What are they going to do with MY FOLLOWERS–seriously, I don’t know, but you are no longer getting my updates until you follow me at the new place..  If you have never been to my blog I would love to have you come over and join in on all the fun.  Here is my busy weekly blog schedule:

On top of all of that, I am a Mom and wife to a hubby who has gone back to school. I home school our 2 oldest boys, next year my little guy, who just turned 5 will start home schooling and then I will just be chasing the Princess around.  And I have recently been asked to write on a blog as a monthly guest, once a month.
Last week my sweet sister and family were here for Spring Break. My kids sure enjoyed their cousins.

Miss G4 was in GIRL heaven with the extra girls in the house.

We currently reside in Florida. I am so sorry for all the snow many of you have dealt with all winter long. We used to be from the Mid-West but for now we enjoy this.

I am a DIY gal and always have been. When I was little I would make crafts and put them in my wagon and go around the neighborhood, knocking on doors, selling my crafts. That was the beginning of my sales training–before I had kiddos I was a sales trainer for a company.

So I know you have heard enough about me and are wanting to see a project right?

Well I have a really cute, fun one for you.

It all started when I created my Pottery Barn Lamp Knock Off
They had this lamp but it was a little pricey

The LOVELY too small lamp shade.
You begin rolling the lampshade around the material.  Don’t mark it till you know you have enough room to cover the entire thing.  Then slowly roll it.  Hold onto the lampshade with one hand–the one you don’t write with and with the other hand mark both the top of the lamp and the bottom, as you roll it.

I THOUGHT I had rolled the lampshade all the way around but when I started applying it –with the adhesive already on it.  I got around to the front  and my material was a little short.  This is where the plan changed for my lampshade.
