Let's Make a Vintage Lampshade and Have a Cozy Chat!

[@oliviahannahkohut4239]

I know you’re super busy, but I just wanted to thank you for all you’ve done. You may not know it, but I aspire to live 50’s, but currently don’t have enough money and watching all your tutorials, q and a’s, and day in the life’s have really made my year. Thank you so much.

[@tootles444]

Completely and totally agree!!!

[@stormylou417]

You're in luck! Living like it's the fifties is all about thriftyness, reuse, and handmade stuff! Ask any grandma! I agree that her videos do make it easier to know what to do though 😁

[@heatherhaines6493]

You can buy light bulbs that are battery operated and it would allow you to put the lamp anywhere! What a great idea with the lap shade!! Thank you for your videos!!

[@maddisonspell-flores8783]

Even if you uploaded once a month I’d still be happy to watch every video! Thank you for your sweet content ♥️

[@hoppas77]

I love the bloopers😂you are just adorable! You did such a beautiful job on the lampshade🤩

[@morriganwitch]

You can buy bulbs that self illuminate and you can plug them into the lamp save rewiring bonus you can have a lamp with no wall socket xxx

[@jenilynntooth5343]

Life is busy. So when you upload a video it makes that day extra special. I enjoy sewing, embroidery, and crocheting. ☺️

[@pamelacrowell2007]

Rewiring a lamp is SOOOOO easy! Way easier than redoing a lampshade! ❤️

[@_GhostTea]

Beautiful work, Sage! I love how crafty you are. My grandmother used to be a seamstress and made wedding dresses for a living. I learned to sew while in theatre school and now I love to embroider and cross-stitch for fun. I'm so impressed with all of your projects, they inspire me to try more! :)

[@emilyrose2912]

I recently moved into my parent's home a year ago; it was my granny's home originally. The main house was built in the late 40s. Then, after my granny had more children and a storm damaged the roof, my grandfather built the upstairs. The addition was built in the 70s and has not been updated; I love it. I grew up in this house and spent a lot of time with my granny; she taught me to sew around 4. She was a fantastic seamstress and quilter, making me many quilts and clothes. I am now remodeling my room into the 1940s/1950s style. My bathroom is staying in its 1970s original style with some new additions, and my sewing room, which was my granny's, is being updated with a 1970s or 60s look. I want the upstairs to look like you are stepping into the past. I'm thinking about filming it all and posting it, I just have anxiety and don't know if anyone would even care to see it. Your videos are a big help with inspiration and tutorials. KZbin, in general, is a huge help.

[@y.l.2465]

So excited we get one of your videos this weekend!

[@kimmyhawk5612]

Sea foam green, pink red, black and white were big colors in the 50's. As I'm sure you know. Your house is looking comfortable and gorgeous. Very nice!! 😊

[@lorisiedl8733]

The lamp stayed turned out cute and I can't wait to see the bathroom

[@kristinradtke]

Renovations always take longer than expected ... I hope yours goes as smoothly as possible. Always a great day when there's a new Sage video! Much love from the US.

[@angelalong6740]

I love your video of being a house wife of the 50s for a week. I still get inspired by it. I have it saved in my favorites list. I started following your ideas for a list. My house is cleaner then it used to be. God bless you and James. Please keep your positive videos coming ♥️

[@latersbaby-50]

I know your probably busy but I would love to see you post more videos, it's just so comfy and relaxing to watch you, your amazing and so sweet!!

[@dragonflysky11]

While I agree very much, I don't want her to feel stressed to push herself to create because some KZbinrs get burnout that way.

[@MothGirl007]

@@dragonflysky11 Totally agree.

[@RedRoseSeptember22]

Aww the lamp shade looks really cute!! Am looking forward to seeing how it looks once it's rewired and has a new bulb. I also can't wait to see the bathroom once it's finished ♥

[@aniroc976]

What a cute idea! Thank you for sitting down and having a chat with us. Makes me feel less stressed with uni seeing you do it all with such style ❤

[@megan2911]

pls feel free to make more of these types of videos. they're so much fun to feel like we're just sitting together chatting 😊❤️

[@alexandragatto]

We're twinning today, I'm sitting here with my brush-out and black turtleneck too! 👯‍♀️

[@barbarafischer4619]

So wonderful to see you pop up on my notifications!

[@deedawson6074]

We enjoy them all the more for their scarcity. Don’t feel pressured. Your a lovely gem that when I see arrive I am delighted. God bless and have a wonderful Christmas. Jam, then cream.

[@fishnchips8618]

Great video as I am making some lamp shades for my vintage Coleman lamps. We are so used to perfection but I prefer hand made, repurposed and a little rustic wear and tear that adds to the charm. I love the 1910-1940s and have a full den and kitchen setup. Would love to see more thrifting and repurposing videos as well! I also love to cook and collect old cookbooks and do some sewing on an electric and a 1911 hand crank Singer. Keep up the great videos and best of luck in Nursing! I am a first responder and it’s stressful but very rewarding work.

[@freyadelling3876]

That is a beautiful lamp! I remember my mom had a lamp in the living room with the exact same lampshade when I was growing up (I was born in 67)! I understand life is busy, I am just thankful for the videos you are able to put out. Your videos are brilliant! I think you did a good job! I love that color you chose.

[@thetoysofchildhood]

So creative! 🛋️ Love it! Can't wait to see your bathroom renovation! (And keeping fingers crossed for Christmas videos!!🤞🎄🥰 They're always so lovely)

[@mariaangelabianchi7852]

Che bella sorpresa rivederti!! Sei così bella e il tuo modo di proporti è così dolce e rilassante. La tua "nuova" lampada è molto carina. Sei così brava in tutto ciò che fai 😍😘😘

[@maritamagnant7889]

My mom was one who took on reupholstering a chair. She wrote down every step she did as she took the chair apart, then followed the steps backwards to put it back together.

[@sherrymackinnon1293]

Your videos are just so endearing! I will look forward to the bathroom reno. Just be careful with James away Sage. We all love you too much to see you accidentally get hurt...🌹💖

[@marep5597]

Any type of video you can do whenever you have time is perfect 🤩 ❤

[@k1886-o6x]

Agreed!

[@lisaann6967]

The 1980’s wedding dress puffy sleeves were thanks to Princess Diana and the Emmanuel’s design. My 👰🏼‍♀️ wedding dress was just like that in 1994 and it’s because I love Princess Diana 💜. I love all of your videos and appreciate all of your designs!

[@LucyElliott]

Sage loves sage green! Super cute video, I have a lamp that needs recovered and this has definitely given my the inspo to do it!

[@stephaniealaia769]

I love how you show color though, most KZbinrs don’t use color and it’s all natural so I’m glad you have pops of color and have the green in ya 💚 always get excited when I see a notification from you 😊 can’t wait to see what the bathroom looks like

[@RayGreen94510]

I am so smitten with you Sage! Absolutely anything you have time to share wonderful!

[@chellemakes]

Such a lovely lampshade! I love your vintage inspired DIYs so so much! Thanks for sharing them!

[@AkiraSig]

We are so proud of you, keep it up and we love your videos ❤️❤️ Merry Christmas ⛄🌲

[@nunnita1991]

your channel is just therapeutic to me.. ❤ I truly love every single video. You’ve got a positive attitude which I really need to see more in my life so I’m learning from you 🥰

[@barbrasse4944]

“Apparently I have a thing for green” - me too!!! About a year ago, I realized that I had a thing for green! Green everywhere in my house and I have no recollection of seeking out the color!

[@rubylace9963]

Omg, this is such a cozy video. You inspire me to start learning how to bake and make crafts to give them as gifts. 😍

[@EmilyGOODEN0UGH]

I recovered two bedside lampshades by just making a rolled hem on both sides of a strip of fabric and gathering it on two pieces of twine. They've been there for decades, and every year or so I just untie them and toss them in the wash.

[@lisahohimer8208]

Thank you so much for your videos! Even though you’re incredibly busy, your taking the time to make videos means so much! Your lampshade is just beautiful! Hope you have a wonderful holiday season with your family & friends! 😊

[@sophievna]

Lovely video and lamp shade Sage! 🥰 I would also love a sewing lesson/tutorial for beginners! 😊

[@paulagardner2708]

Home baked goods and things you make are far more special. It's the time and love put into them!!

[@janeburkhart4051]

Such a cozy video and a sweet lampshade. Thank you for all you do, Sage. ❤️

[@sandiemable]

Re-covering a lampshade, what a great idea! The pleats soften the shade, and it works next to your chair. Something tells me I will soon be looking for a sad lampshade and some gorgeous fabric. Please don't stress yourself over a video; there will be time later, which will be even more special and well worth the wait! Have a wonderful weekend, xoxo's Sandie😊

[@helendertilis4686]

I see your style as late 40s early 50s, love it.

[@paulagardner2708]

Cannot wait to see the renovations!! It will be worth it in the end...

Lampshade looks great ! Always love seeing your videos…..🙏🏼❤️

[@timc2346]

Always Crafty. Eh from Ontario. 🇨🇦 Actually is a nice vintage colour ,I have a area rug .Thought of replacing but like the colour etc.Like the sketch in background often look at vintage art work at Thrift stores.

[@texasstardust6010]

Greetings from the U. S.A. ...I had to smile and chuckle to myself about " the Green " ... 🙂😊.... I do like the colour green, I noticed for the past 12 years, I've used it more and more ....lol. I even purchased a drop down secretary desk , off Marketplace, and it's a sort of shade of " not bright " apple Green shade , with gold painted trim. I have no intention of changing the color, lol, because I actually have throw pillows in almost the same shade. I enjoy your showing us your projects, and no one is really concerned about the ' consistency ", Miss Sage ! I love seeing that you posted something, whenever you have time to do so. By the way, your hair looks fabulous the way it's styled here. A lot of women, in the 1950's actually wore stylish trousers and a lovely top or sweater ,and a stylish loafer shoe, or something similar. So whatever you're wearing ' on the daily " still offers you that " look ". :) ( if you take a look at Fashions of Grace Kelly when she wore trousers , as well as stylish women of that time, you'll see how fashionable and put together they were even though they were wearing trousers.) Stay Blessed, you and James and looking forward to the next Video ,whenever that may be ! 🙂😊🙏🏻☕️

So talented! You're probably thinking "any moron can do this". I'm definitely not that moron, LOL! I wish I was talented in this way. It looks beautiful!🥰

I love making things for Christmas too! Last year I made little fabric and felt bird ornaments. And every year I make a vanilla bark coated chex mix.

[@KathrynHenny]

What a lovely thing. Good luck with your placements!

[@theresastubblefield5706]

Hey, what a neat video! If you have in Australia the new self charging light bulbs you can use them if you can't rewire the lamp!!

[@eleabolar]

So happy to see another video from you!!!

[@marieryan2541]

Hi Sage. Your lamp shade now looks so vintage now you done it but with a modern twist. I love home-made things it is alot better and last longer than shop brought things besides it is more personal. Love your long hair it's really suits you.

[@Teri_Head]

Green is very much a spa, calming color

This is perfect! I have several old lamps that need new lampshades. The shade frames are still good, but the coverings are destroyed. Thank you for the how-to!

Aw that’s a lovely gift! 💞

[@MoonShadowRayne]

I’m a nurse also. I love retro things. I’ve been looking at doing lamp shades too. A good way to learn sewing now a day is to watch beginner sewing KZbin channels. I agree that the hippie age was horrible clothes, manners, sprach etc.

[@ginger1549]

Hi ladies. Another nurse here - well - retired nurse. I worked full time for 38 years - and finally I was just too worn out to go on. I worked in ICU in a big city hospital, so it was always something interesting coming thru the door. I have to agree - even though I was a hippie at the time - the "fashions" of the 70's were just awful. It seems all I ever wore were bib overalls with a tube top under it in the summer and a flannel shirt in the winter.

[@laura1500]

I enjoy your videos so much. I really hope you will continue with them after starting your nursing career

[@alisnwonderland6595]

I hope you will be doing a “vintage Christmas Day” type video - not just decorating but a day in the life type thing! ❤️

I love your videos. Your so sweet and bubbly 🙂 I'm still working my way through the recipes of the decades. Being in the U.S. I didn't know what bubble n squeak was though. 🙂 I love to decorate, I use a " theme" to decorate like my dining room is all Disney stuff, my bedroom is all girly, floral n butterflies tons of pastels. Good luck in nursing school 🙂

Just think of it this way your name is Sage and that fabric for the lamp shade looks close to that color 😍

[@ginger1549]

It is so nice to see you are decorating your house with colors. Personally I am sick to death of seeing everything grey or all black & white. I used color to decorate and I feel my house is more cozy and inviting. I loved the lampshade. Here in the USA they sell kits to rewire lamps - they are very simple to do. Check out your hardware store. Everything you need is in the kit (except a lightbulb). It usually only takes about 30 min to do one.
