I need your advice! The colours aren't very good in the photos as it's so dark in here, but this is Sam's new lampshade so far...it's a lion, giraffe and a random tree that really doesn't look jungly on a pale green lampshade.

Do you think I should...

(a) leave it as it is
(b) add some tufts of grass between each of the pictures
(c) have some leaves/branches/bushes hanging down above so that there isn't a huge gap above the lion, or does that look ok?

Thanks :D x

id leave it or add sum stuff around the top ...very cute xx
 
its so cute u could add some leaves but it looks good already x
 
Thanks everyone :D Might put it up and see how it looks...Sam's going into his own room this wseekend so it's about time I started getting it all ready :rofl: x
 
aww the big move

I know...I'm dreading it :cry: Our alarm always wakes him up in the morning though, so he'll probably sleep better in his own room.
I'll hate not waking up to see him smiling at me :( x
 
I like the lampshade as it is. Anymore might spoil it.

Good luck with the move, it's always harder on the mummy :hugs:

This is why we dont have an alarm.. Colton is usually our alarm clock. Which is normally fine because he wakes between 5.30-6.30. However, the last two days he has woke up at 9.30am(Friday) and then today at 8am. Which didn't go over too well with OH on Friday! :dohh: :lol:
All well, I told OH when he gets our place finished and we can move out of his mothers, LO will have his own room so we can have an alarm again!
But other times I tell him that when we move I'm still going to put the baby in our room. I dont want him to leave! :baby:


Oh yeah.. I'd leave the lampshade. It's cute.
Or maybe add some grass at the bottom. But either way, it's still cute!

:laugh2: We've stopped relying on Sam as our alarm clock - he always used to wake up just before our alarm went off but if we don't set it now he'll sometimes sleep for half the morning too (was hoping he would this morning as I wanted a lie in but he was up at 7.30!)

I've put off moving him for another night :D x
 
I lovelovelove the lampshade as it is!

Really want one the same actually. I love the jungle theme :)

If you want one I can send you the pictures :D They're just scanned and coloured on photoshop, printed on yellow mulberry paper (because the light shines through it) and stuck on a cheap pale green lampshade! x
