Lamp Makeover

Do You Remember

this bedroom canopy from  The Tea Castle display? 

Recently it was being donated to an auction for the 
Macomb Charitable Foundation.

I wanted to add a few accessories 

to be donated along with the canopy.

A cute girly lamp would be perfect.

Not wanting to spend much, and with a vision in mind, 

I headed to the thrift store!

Sometimes you're just lucky what you find...

and lucky I was!

Doesn't look like much but remember,

I had a vision in mind!

A lampshade for .99 cents and it was Pink.

Couldn't ask for better than that!

Can you see the price???

Yep, $2.99

PERFECT...

The lamp got a quick makeover with some cream spray paint!

I searched through my stash for some trim.  

Found some pretty trim with pearls on it 

and  hot glued the trim to the lampshade.

 I added some pretty shimmer tulle and a BIG bow to the shade.  

Gotta love a glue gun, it makes things so quick & easy!

A little green and pink paint was added to the lamp.

And Here It Is....

My $3.98 Lamp transformation!

It was the perfect touch for the auction....

I'll be linking up to the following sites....
