A Floor Lamp Makeover
When I participated in the One Room Challenge, I was looking for a new floor lamp to tie into my casual coastal feel. I didn't have to look too far!
My Aunt was relocating from her home to a retirement apartment and she had this old brass lamp with a cream colored pleated shade. The brass was showing its age and was dull and uninteresting.
I sprayed the base with my favorite Antique Bronze paint.
You would never know it was the same lamp!
I got the inspiration for the look of the lamp from this Pottery Barn ad!
Not to bad! Cost of the lamp: free Paint: $6.00! Total time involved: 30 minutes!
