Revamped Lamps

THESE BEAUTIES!!! Have been sitting in our house collecting dust! They are ugly in every sense of the word! These were given to my mother in-law after we moved out by her mother, and she just though they were so ugly she'd give them to me and she'll just buy knew ones.... Fucking awesome! Now I'm stuck with the ugly lamps and grandma knows it, so now I have to keep them until she kicks the bucket. Well a year goes buy and I just felt it was time, I have extra spray paint and some nice weather, let's do this!


Look at these!! Hideous! And thank god the texture was on the inside because I'm just not sure how these would have looked. 


So here I just hit it with some thin layers of Hammered Metal spray paint by Rustolium that I had used on a lamp a few weeks ago, give it skittle texture. And it's kind of a semi matte look which I kinda liked. 


Added just a thin layer of just your average black spray paint from Rustolium and let that dry. 


There! Looks a little bit better, right? Half way there, now those lamp shades. I was planning on getting some new ones but I had some hemp in front of me so I thought, hmmm well worst comes to worst I'll buy new ones like I was planning on anyways. 


And I gotta say, I'm pretty happy with the results! So much better then that ugly purple mess! 

Any questions feel free to ask!
