Project #1


I wish I had taken before pictures, but I didn't so you just get to see the finished project. I bought this lamp at DI for $5, took it apart, painted it, and bought a new lamp shade. Finished total around $25. I figured not too bad. I couldn't find what I wanted in stores for less than $30. So I saved and it was fun to do.

I love it. Good job! We need a couple of lamps. Maybe I should try your approach.

Ahhhh! You got the decorating bug! Isn't it fun to materialize what's in your head? It rarely happens for me. I would have spent more than $60 for that lamp...because I would have been to lazy to do what you did! Great job! I love it!

Looks awesome! I love it. What a great idea too. Hmm. Maybe I need to check the thrift store.
