Thrift store lampshade retake
So once again I forgot to take a before photo but it was just a boring beige shade.
so before I did anything else I took it outside and spray painted the inside and outside with a metallic spray. If the inside is doe with a reflective paint the light will be brighter. I bought some octagonal crystals online to fix a brass lamp that was missing all the crystals. So of coarse I got extra for exactly this purpose.
Girl gotta have her sparkles!
I took some leftover black ribbon edging and hot glued it along the inside edge.
a little closer
I took some small silver wire and threaded it through the edging and the crystals. I didn't measure in between or the length of wire because I wanted it to look kinda shabby chic.
Once I had them all along the edge I added some rhinestones along the top edge to finish it off.
Turned it on and if I say so it turned about pretty rad.
