Lamps Transformed

I have had these brass lamps since we moved to Arlington 14 years ago.  They have followed me through several apartments and now our house.  They used to be in our living room but eventually they made it back to the attic where they have lived for several years.


I had contemplating spray painting them for a couple of years.  I finally got up the guts to do it last weekend.  Enter Rustoleum Harbor Blue.

The lampshade is from Target and just happened to fit over the existing lamp works so I didn't have to get a harp.

More to come tomorrow...

  2. I just painted one very similar to yours with oil rubbed bronze and the transformation is incredible.

  3. That blue color & new shade looks so great! Makes them look like completely different lamps!

  4. It looks great! It looks like something you could buy from a store. It's fresh and the colour is pretty. The drum shade suits it better.
