Boring Cream Lamp ...

Hi Everybody,

This is a lamp that sits in my hall way and it was one that I have had for years. 

It was just a plain cream one with gold calligraphy on a cream shade. 

So I decided to give it a new lease of life with a can of gold spray paint, some glitter and a little bit of  gold flower wrap.

I was very pleased that the gold writing showed up on the shade and it makes for a very pleasing result.

I sprayed the gold flowers wrap with the same can and that just blended all the shades of gold together and looked much better.

It now sits back in the hall and it is on a timer so that it lights up the room and I don't come in to a dark house ... which I hate doing.


More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

  9. Wow! Christina, this is beautiful. It looks rose colored in the photo which is so soft and pretty. You're going to have to start doing you tube videos on how to do all these new creations. You certainly have been busy. I can't wait to see your next project.
