Howdy folks! I hope you had a nice weekend and enjoyed the spirit of the holiday with your family and friends. My weekend was pretty low-key. I didn't do much at all, which was fine by me! On Saturday I went to Home Depot in search of some spray paint for my pineapple lamp. With so many options I began to feel overwhelmed and decided to leave. I want my lamp to be beautiful! So I went home and searched the internet for some inspiration...
I came across this awesome pineapple lamp from Horchow, it was just the inspiration I needed!

As a reminder, this is what I started with.
And here she is now, all shined up and ready to glow!
I love this lamp with its new look. There's nothing better than finding used treasures then turning them into something new!
