If I remember correctly, I found this small lamp several years ago at a consignment shop.
This is the original look, which I loved for a long time, especially the way the boot was painted.
At some point later, I completely changed the look of it with paper and paint.
I redecorated the top of my mother's pie safe and decided I needed a small lamp to sit on it. So I got this one out of the closet and did another makeover on it with ivory paint, taupe fabric, and lace.
Lamp after makeover. I used Waverly Chalk Paint in Ivory, taupe fabric scraps (hot glued on), and cotton lace with ribbon. The base has a stick-on piece from the Dollar Tree. It reads, "simply life".
I like using lamps and now this can give a warm glow to this area. I like it in white best of all. I've been on a roll of updating lamps recently. It's an easy project, and you can give them a whole new look. I like being able to go through my "leftover" crafting items to find ways to embellish them.

The topiary was less than a dollar, and I painted the pot to clean it up, added stick-ons, and the large flower.
