DIY Easy Lamp Redo Tutorial

Here is what you do...
1.  Pick up one of these brass lamps from a garage sale or thrift store.  Mine were from a garage sale at $2 each.

 2.  Get a can of spray paint.  Design master is sold at Joanns and Hobby Lobby and has a good color selection.  Don't forget to use a coupon making it about $3 for the can.  Also, high gloss looks nice, but is usually only available in more neutral colors.

3.  Use paper and tape to cover any spots on the lamp that you do not want to  be painted.  Put the lamp on a drop cloth in a well ventilated spot.  Evenly spray one coat over the whole lamp.

4.  Find a lamp shade that you like.

5.   For $5 plus a shade...you're done!
