How you can turn this:
Into this!:
As my best friend would say....
BAM!!
I bought this light fixture at the Habitat for Humanity Re-Store near my house for $4. I mean it's pretty bad.... Dax saw it and said, "that's the ugliest thing I've ever seen..... why did you buy that?" But I see potential!
The Re-Store is awesome. It's like a thrift store for building supplies!
I've been wanting new lights in our bathroom for a while now. The cheapest light fixtures that we're willing to put in would run us about $60 for both bathrooms. That isn't expensive, but there are other places I'd rather spend the money. That's where spray paint comes in....
I removed the glass and stuffed newspaper where the light bulb goes in.
I used Krylon Brushed Nickel spray paint.
After the 1st coat
And the 2nd coat
I bought new glass for the light fixture at the restore as well for $2.50 a piece.
As new light fixture for $11.50 and an hour of my time. Not bad!
Here it is again, just because.
BAM!!
Happy Homemaking :)
