Live Well, Laugh Often, Love Much

My kids laugh at me and say “If you stay too long at moms house she may spray paint you.”
I find it funny that they now have started spray painting things that need changing around their houses.

Here is one of my most favorite spray painted projects so far.

I found this lamp at TJMaxx and it had great detail, hearts~scrolls and lions claw feet, but it was brown~~not very ’shabby chic’.
Sorry about the image,I got so excited I forgot to take before pictures, I had to go back to the store and take a before picture with my cell phone.

I had been looking for a cute shabby chic lamp for my ‘beach cottage’ guest bedroom. I didn’t want to pay $100.00 so I kept thinking I would find an antique or junk one to redo. No luck until I found this one at TJMaxx for $24.99.

What a difference a $4.00 can of antique white spray paint and $5.00 worth of crystal beaded trim can do for a lamp.

“Shabby Chic”
