STEP BY STEP VINTAGE LAMP MAKEOVER
BASE OF THE LAMP
- Take the lap apart and give the bases a good clean down
- Cover the electrical cords with plastic
- Spray paint an undercoat or primer that is going to stick on the ceramic base – we recommend bin aerosol primer!
- Making sure you always use your PPE, spraypaint the base with the colour of your choice with straight sweeps spraying motions.
SHADE MAKEOVER:
- Choose your fabric of choice – We recommend something sheer or floral
- Even fold your fabric around the shade to create small pleats and secure it with pins
- Hand sew the pleats down with a standard needle and thread
- Attach the base and top of the lamp shade with a choice of your trimming and secure it with a hot glue gun
