This light fixture was once bright brass. I used a two-step process with a rust type paint to update this, then added the shades.
This blurry little table was once a plain stained brown table, and the black paint gave it the needed update. I sanded for a little distressing, and added a glass top.
One more bright brass lamp painted with the rust look.
Be sure to check out all of the great ideas over at Joy's.
Have a wonderful day. Jackie

Look at you with all of those colors... Nice job!
Everything looks great. I love the made over brass. I see it every where and now I have a great idea as to what to do with it.
Those look great. I don't like brass, but I like what you've done to brass!

You would never know that those lamps had a previous life as brass. They look so good updated in the rust color. And the table looks great in black.
Isn't it wonderful to give a whole new look to your home and save money doing it?
Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful projects.
Hi Jackie! Thanks for visiting:) Love you blogs. Your lighting transformation is amazing. And your Stella looks like such lady!!
Nice job!
I love updating lamps. You can find them at garage sales and good will easily. Take them home and they are an easy fix-er-up! Nice job with yours.

I've never tried the rust spray paint! I may check that out next time I'm in the spray paint aisle! I love all your projects!!
Hi Jackie,
Your projects look great. What is the color of the paint you use for the lamps?

I have lamps with brass trim. That's a great idea to paint over it. Spray paint gives us so much freedom! I love it!
