From Drab to Fab Day 5

And to finish it off...the Lamp:


Before: boring ol' white lamp that served more as a necklace holder than a lamp. When I finally accumulated too many necklaces that they started falling off if a light breeze hit, I decided to move them to a more secure location...ha ha. Upon removing the necklaces I realized just how dingy my lamp and lamp shade looked...ewwww

After: Ta-da!! Looks brand spankin' new! New shade. New color. New pretty thing to look at and maybe even turn on now...below are the pics of everything coming together

Burlap Pottery Barn shade...I love that you can kind of see through it

Fresh paint...this is the same Valspar paint I used on the frame

All ready to be plugged in!

Pretty! It has a romantic feel to me when the light is on and I love that you can see the bulb!
I hope you have enjoyed this week of updates! Have you updated anything recently?

It's amazing the power of spray paint! And the new shade looks great!
