This might be the easiest project yet. Remember these lamps from the Living Room tour?
Easy Lamp Update
I thought the lampshade was the problem. I was searching for DIY lampshade ideas on Pinterest, and scouring DIY blogs. Nothing seemed like it was going to work, and then it hit me maybe it’s the color of the lamp base that’s the problem. It was a real “Aha!” moment.
Is there nothing a little black paint won’t fix?
Ahhh… much better and now I love the shade. Crazy.
P.S. My son made the little sculpture of our dog when he was in 3rd grade… so sweet. It looks just like her.
