Hi!
This transformation had two stages. Not planned tough.
Keep tuned.
I found this amazing Mason jar at the thrift store, already like THIS, can you believe it????
!!!!!!
Oh yeah, oh yeah , oh yeah, big plans for this one I thought ...and snapped it.
And becaus , how can I say, I LOVE to paint and distress my mason jars , next step was easy.
Old Shade...pretty, but not cute:)
Inspired by my previous scrap fabric project , I stripped, spray painted and tied scrap fabric to the old shade. I love this more than sweet result:
ohhhh, cute , uh?
"CATAPLOFT"! A big FAIL!!!....you know why?
For some reason ( excitement? eagerness? rush? anxiety?I am nuts? I am old? I am getting old?) I did not try the lamp switch before buying/painting, so I soon found out a very important detail: the lamp wouldn't switch off......OUCH!
Ok, Andrea, F-A-I-L!! Should I go back to the old lamp? This sad brushed metal one?
No! Spray paint alert went off in my spray paint oriented brain:
So......
I usually paint the undercoat in black in order to distress with the black underneath , but I was out of black spray paint so I used red paint ( excitement? eagerness? rush? anxiety? )
I think they will go well together, what do you think?
YES!
I like how the red shows underneath.!

Looks good :) haha, we've all had those fail moments where our best thought out plans dont quite work :)
ReplyDeleteHow cute! I love the blue base paired with that amazing shade! Hopefully you'll still be able to use that mason jar for some other project! Thanks so much for sharing!
