A $6 beam and a $5 light fixture

Thanks to my handy brother-in-law, the beam is up and so is the last light fixture in the master bathroom. This is the $5 brass light fixture (I forgot to take a before picture) that I got from a garage sale. I spray painted it white, added some crystals from Home Depot (you can also buy vintage ones), and decopaged scrapbook paper to the candle sleeves and glittered them up a bit. I am also going to add a crystal garland to give it a bit more **bling**. It turned out great and is coming along....Thanks Tim!

I know this is going to sound rediculous but Twin usually sends the e mails, not me. I went to my yahoo and couldn't find the compose button. Gotta have Twin show me later.
To answer your question, I have never put vinyl on fabric but it is quite sticky and could work. I've actually thought about doing it to my shower curtain also but haven't tried it yet. Of course if it did work it would have to be removed before washing but how much do you wash a shower curtain? The only reason I hesitated to put it on was because there are folds in a shower curtain as when it is closed it isn't a tight fit and would the monogram show well? I think I'm putting a monogram on the wall above the shower curtain because I think it will show better. And no we don't do stencils. Hope this info. helps.
