I've had this little uplight forever and the shade had yellowed and had little cracks all over.
Time for a restyle!!
I hit my stash for Mod Podge and some pretty turquoise tissue paper.
I crinkled the tissue up and tore it into postage stamp size pieces.
After cleaning the light shade I covered the whole thing with the crumpled tissue,
including a generous border folded over the top. At this point I was
really jazzed because this looks like burnished STONE.
I sealed it with clear acrylic spray.
Even during the day it lends a pop of the blue color I love to it's place on my shelf.
Oooh aaaah!
I like it even better when it's lit up!
It's the perfect light for the shelf at the end of my
hallway and it highlights my painting so nicely!
Sometimes a project just comes together so quickly and
easily that it makes me laugh out loud. This was one of them.
Now I'm looking at the other lamp right over there......
