Lampshade Makeover

Easy
I thought bringing a little gold into my living room might be fun. So I ordered the Irongate lampshade from Walmart.com. When it came I found a black lamp base that had been sitting in the garage, and they went together perfectly!
The first thing I did was use a fine tip permanent marker to mark where I wanted each of the tacks to go.
Then I pushed all the tacks into the bottom of a cardboard box to make it easier to spray paint them. Once they were dry, I brought them back in the house and pushed them into the holes I’d made on the lampshade.
This is the finished product. What do you think?

Very nice! Just the right amount of gold.

Possibly. I would put those rubber earring backs on the tacks to make sure they stay put.
