Hello.
You can buy Gold leaf paint or spray paint or Maybe instead of paint, you could use foil or sticky backed plastic - Contact?
You can buy gold paint at the craft store and paint the inside. Just with a brush. It sounds beautiful!
just be careful because it could get flammable. Make sure you use a low-temp lightbulb after you paint it. Spray paint could work.
here is some info for you

I would use spray paint
Tandi, please turn this into a Hometalk project so we can see it!
You can use craft acrylic paint or gold leaf.
Hi Tandy, make sure the shade is clean and dry inside, tape off the top and bottom so the paint does not bleed, then use a brush to apply your shiny gold paint , you may need to put 2 coats on it. Good luck
