I’m really feeling these glossy painted lampshades. It’s something a little different and feels fresh even though it’s totally old-school. I hardly ever see these rigid cardboard type lampshades out there, so I must keep my eye out for them at flea markets and thrift shops. Maybe I can paint some in some fun colours for spring!

I really like this look, too! Will be on the lookout next month at the Brimsfield market in Mass!
I love this look, too! I will be on the lookout for some of these vintage shades next month at the Brimfield market in Massachusetts!
Thanks for the tip. I’m going to be on the look-out for them too! I guess they’d need to be sturdy cardboard, rather than paper for that kind of painting, right?
