OIL RUBBED BRONZE ... AMAZING!!!

OK ... here is the thing ... we are frugal sisters always looking for ways to decorate and save money.  I have had these lamps for who knows how long.  You can definitely tell they are older because of the little beads hanging off the edges of the shades.  OMG ... lets get into 2010, please.  Embarrassing!  They cost about $12 each.

So we found the most AMAZING thing on the paint aisle at Home Depot ... OIL RUBBED BRONZE spray paint!  I am in heaven :) I mean, really?! 

So this is before ... the not so beautiful gold and black laquer lamps with beads hanging off the shades(sorry to all those who love gold!)


A few quick and easy sprays on each side, and hour in the sun, and a pair of scissors to cut off the 1999 beading and WA-LAH! 




Beautiful lamps that look like I bought them at a designer furniture store.  Add some fake fruit on clearance from TJ Maxx and a yellow table runner folded in half = new look. 

Now pay attention to the table ... that is our next project.  Stay tuned.
