Altered Corset Lamp

Remember the little corset lamp I bought at the thrift store?  Well, I got a chance to tear it apart and alter it.  I recycled the black lace from an old Halloween costume. It was a bit too shear so I added some black fabric behind it.   I used May Arts ribbon at the top.  The ribbon is about 2” wide, so I sewed 4 pieces together to make it wide enough.  The little flower is also May Arts and I gathered  a 2 inch piece, added a bead and sewed it in the center.  I hand stitched the lace and fabric to the corset, added the cups and flower and PRESTO!
