31 Days of Simple Painted Projects

Hi Everyone! Welcome to 31 Days of Simple Painted Projects.

If you are a blogger, you are most likely familiar with the Nester's 31 Day writing challenge that comes around every October. Last year I failed miserably and never finished. Sad Face. But, it is a new year, and I am really excited about taking this project on this year. I have been thinking about my topic for several weeks, but could not land on anything. I finally decided that it was time to get back to my roots.

My absolute favorite thing to do is a simple painted project. And when I say simple, I really do mean simple. I enjoy the projects that can be completed in a short period of time with very little effort on my end. I really enjoy spray paint, and anything that I can do with a small set of paint brushes and acrylic paint. I have done my share of painting furniture the old fashioned way, but I don't enjoy it, and do not consider it to be simple.

Come back each day to see a Simple Painted Project. Most of these projects are things that I have done over the years, and are buried in my archives, but there will be PLENTY of new projects as well.

Are you ready to see today's Simple Painted Project?

 This is one of my all time favorites. I found this lamp base at the rescue mission. They happened to be running a special on lamps this particular day, so I only paid $1 for this lamp! I came home and found a can of orange spray paint in the cabinet. It was the perfect pop of color for this room... way back in the day. Unfortunately, as the room progressed, the orange didn't stay. Spray paint is easy, so you will see this lamp again this month sporting a different color. Oh, and the lampshade is by Better Homes and Gardens for Walmart. (Not sponsored)
