The office makeover was completed some time ago now...

 And it looked fabulous...
But one thing was missing.  A light shade on the lonesome bulb!
It has taken forever to decide on what was right for this tiny room.
Fractured light was not an option...so I chose a simple linen shade.

So I thought...
why not embellish the plain linen shade with buttons.

 I kept the colour scheme neutral, using white toned buttons.
 And with the trusty glue gun...
(next to my drop saw this would be one of my most vital tools!)
