Pottery Barn Weston Lantern / Lamp Knock-Off TUTORIAL


Love these POTTERYBARN Weston Lamps. But they are pretty expensive! The small is $39 and the Large is $119.  How about a PotteryBarn Knock-off Tutorial?  I actually saw this very kind of lamp at the Habitat Store the other day.  But, wouldn't you know, I didn't buy it. I'll have to go and get it now. (In reading her blog I see that she actually bought this old lamp from a Habitat store....wonder if it was the same one I saw?)  Check out the tutorial and make some of these great lamps/lanterns just in time for your fall decorating, Halloween and Thanksgiving.



 Head on over to "Oh so she says" to see more photos and read the tutorial so you can make one for yourself. Use a bronze paint to get the same look as the ones from PotteryBarn.  Yeah, you've got this!

{Tutorial} Pottery Barn Knock-Off-Kids Craft Center Pencil and Crayon Caddy

I love, love, love Pottery Barn things. I don't love their prices. So when you can find a tutorial of a knock-off of a Pottery Barn or a Kids Pottery Barn item it's WONDERFUL!  We will be showing several this week so come on back.  It's an organizational item but also ART in a way. Use colorful buckets to make a statement. Everything has a place from the pencils, to the markers, to the scissors etc. This is promoted as an item for the kids but why couldn't you use it in your craft room too? Yah, what a cool idea!




This one is from Pottery Barn at $49.....way to much! 




Notice the  the caddy on the table


First you get a Lazy Susan at IKEA for $7.99, then get your buckets at your favorite dollar store or Target. They can be any size you want or need.   The rest of the project is a breeze. See the tutorial  here!


Just another thought. Wouldn't this be a cute way to display your favorite food at a party?  The Lazy Susan is so great as it rotates for easy access....I'm going to make one and use it at my next party. We could put vegetable sticks, breadsticks, candies of all kinds, condiments etc. Put stryofoam inside the bucket and display your cake bites!   (I can just see a cute flag sticking out of the bucket telling all what's inside)
