And I love Tar-jay. I can’t go in there without spending two times the amount I thought I would when I first decided to go there.
Case in point? I went to look for a lamp shade to replace one in our bedroom that I mayyyy have splattered with paint while hammering a lid shut after painting our bedroom for the millionth time. As I navigated my way through the store towards the lamp aisle {I’ll get back to lamp shades in another post ;)}, I had to pass by numerous pretty things. I forced myself to stroll on by the first time around, but I caved when passing them by for the second time. This shapely lady ended up in my cart.
I wasn’t the biggest fan of the plastic-ish black frame, but I knew that could easily be fixed with some gold spray paint I already had on hand. {Yup...the same paint I used to make this cheap art for our bedroom.}
The conditions around here aren’t ideal for spray painting, but one Saturday the temps happened to reach the mid-40’s, and I decided to live on the edge and set up my spray painting shop on our back porch.
One quick coat of a spray primer...
Then two quick coats of gold...
And I was left with this. I’m. In. Love.
Not too long ago, I would have never thought mixing metals would be my jam...now, I’m obsessed. I love the un-matchy-matchy feeling of it. Anyone else enjoy mixing it up?
