Dumpster Find Lamp Makeover

Last summer at the beach I found a lamp in a dumpster. Supplies were purchased for a makeover and a recent few days off from school thanks to a snowstorm gave me precious free time to give this lamp a new look. After a few coats of spray paint and a new shade, this lamp looks as good as new!
It's hard to believe that this beauty was found in a dumpster!
Before and After!
The lamp now resides by my husband's soon to be replaced chair in our family room.
The lamp blends well with our furnishings.

    Does your hubby know that you are replacing his chair? Don't toss it just because it is finally "broken in" and is comfy. The room needs some color...the rug is nice...
