Shabby Chic project



Not To Shabby! Project created by: Janie and Martiel on a Crafty Saturday Afternoon.

Before...What once was an ugly outdated lamp, salvaged for a dollar, hideous in avocado green with gold bands, is now the AFTER...


A lamp of pure elegance looks like $50. Look out Pier One! Cover the base in pewter spray paint, snazz up the shade with some beaded fringe, and Vwallah! Beautiful lamp that once was an ugly duckling...



(before photo, was edited to try to show what it looked like) we didn't think to take a "before photo" untill afterwards...oops!

Leave a comment and tell me what you think!
