You have nice bits of fabric or wall paper that you just
cant throw away.
And probably a lamp that you really dont like because
of its horrible lamp shade.
Here is a tip how to make it all useful!
![]() |
| To get this result we started with... |
...this old grey shade:
So take par metre of a nice wall paper and
tear it into rough pieces.
It looks funny here but you
can do it in different shapes.
Then just put bits randomly on to the shade with wallpaper glue until the shade is completely covered.
Let it dry.
At the end you can cut the edges with a small sharp knife so that it fits the lamp, see below.
Done!
It all took less than one hour to do!
You can also use newspaper or pages from an old book.
Or why not write some text on it!
Good luck!

Fast soup recipe
The nice weather has left you and you have had a flu or a really bad cold and need to recover fast and not much power is there - then trust us - this is it! Within maximum of 5 minutes with almost no money at all you have a nice soup!
You need a vegetarian or a chicken broth to put into hot water that you can take from your kettle, put salt in and ad whichever pasta you like.
Preferably fast cooking, these take 3 minutes.
And you have made you a very nice and light meal!
Good also for those who would like to lose weight if you just eat normal portions of it. But that applies to all meals...

First garden mowing this year is done!
And afterwards any drink is nice!
Cheers!
Spring is coming so here is a tip for your lawn:
cut it a little higher than usual in the beginning - it needs to recover after the winter and the first sun can be too strong for it if the grass is too short.
Water early mornings or evenings so that the sun doesn´t burn it.
This way you will always have a green lawn during the summer!
