I bought these brassy lamps over the weekend. It was "50% off" day at the Goodwill, and I knew I could find some good trash to turn to treasure. They were regularly $9.00. Score! Two lamps for $9.00 :) Okay I'll admit they needed a little work. Out to the spray paint place they went...
After a coat of primer and paint...
I added some distress..
(Forgive the quality of this picture, I didn't use my flash, and tried to lighten it on the computer.)
I added a coat of polyurethane for protection, and I ended up with this!
Next Mission: Find some swanky lampshades to redo.
