It's okay to fail.

So, obviously, I didn't make a post yesterday about my amazing upcycled lamp shade. EPIC FAIL.



 As I began to cut into the shade I found out a few things.
1. I don't really think things through.
2. There are NO side supports on this shade.
3. I didn't have a back-up plan.
well, poop. So I had to run out to the store and buy a new shade and come back to the drawing board.

But that's the best thing ever-
I didn't get defeated. I didn't get down on myself. 
I learned a lesson(maybe check it out all the way, have a back up) and I'll keep going.So for now, the doily's are chillin on my worktable and I started a new project. I'm going to keep thinking about the doily's until I figure out a solution, but I'm not going to give up. I have faith in me. I'll come up with something eventually. and it wasn't a failure, it was a learning experience. I totally know how to tackle this when I get a new plan together!

 Until then, we'll just say this project is to be continued...
