Turn a boring lamp into a pretty one!

Basically, I took a regular 'ol floor lamp and repainted the shades. Might sound boring but its actually a very nice and unique look.

Step 1:

The supplies I used:

Floor Lamp: $15
White primer spray paint: $4
Red acrylic paint: $1
Black acrylic spray paint: $1
Sponge brushes: $2 for a pack of three

Total: $23

Is there any alternative to the primer??

The primer might not be necessary, but maybe try adding a second coat of paint instead.

Thanks for commenting!

getting out my spray paint. I was looking for a great shade idea. For your lamp, painting the base green would look cool flowery!

Cool idea! I think some darker red strokes at the base would make it look like a tulip...

That's awesome - it looks so much nicer now. :D
