Remember when I said...
I wasn't painting anymore rooms in our house? Did I say that here? Well, if I didn't here, I told everyone I could -- I'm hiring out from now on. Well, I lied. My impatience got the best of me and I just couldn't take it...When we moved into our house, I painted a wall in our master bedroom above the fireplace. Then about two years ago, I painted the wall behind our bed and added two tone stripes
Shedding Some Light
Isn't it wonderful how even the smallest of light can warm up a room. I enjoy having small lights on in my home all day long. So it wouldn't surprise you to know that if I find a small light at the thrift store, I usually buy it. This is my newest acquisition.
Oh yes, you know that it's going to be transformed with spray paint.
Now it looks like a sweet little candlelight.
It's the perfect addition to my collection.
Oh yes, you know that it's going to be transformed with spray paint.I'm actually going to give it a whole new look by replacing the socket cover with one that looks like a melting candle. The light bulb will be replaced with a silicone covered bulb, that I really, really, really like the look of. (I know you're going to ask where I buy them, so I'll tell you that the bulbs can be found in craft stores, lighting stores and even in some fabric stores. The socket covers are found where other lighting supply things can be found.)
Now it looks like a sweet little candlelight.
It's the perfect addition to my collection.
PS
I am so forgetful! I really need to thank sweet Jackie at Empty Nest Full Life. She gave me this award last week. Thank you so very much!
