Welcome to another Style Feature Saturday, hosted by Perfectly Imperfect.
Several years ago I bought a set of three matching lamps that were a funny greenish color. As seen below.
I intended to paint them the with the very popular ORB paint, but after much searching, I was not able to find it. I did find a dark brown called Espresso, I painted them with that, but they were just too brown for my liking. I took them outside again and just bare gave them a whiff of black spray paint. It gave them a bit of depth and I am liking them much better now. Oh, and I found a different shade for the tall lamp and have purchased one shade for one of the others and I love it, so I shall go back to Walmart and get another one of those.
What do you think, is it better?
I hope you are all enjoying a beautiful, sunny weekend!
Hugs,
