I did this little project in a few hours last week, we wanted a new lamp for the living room but I hadn't been able to find anything I liked/ could afford then Rich turned up this old lamp while look for something totally different in the shed.
We bought this solid wooden lamp why back when we where at uni 12/13 years ago, God knows why we held on to it this long given how often I cull our stuff for the charity shops! Anyway it was pretty grubby and had patchy varnish so I gave it a quick sand to remove the rest.
Then drew out the pattern I wanted lightly in pencil...
I've got a liking for flat coloured triangles at the moment as well as slate grey and yellow ochre so that's what I had to go for!
I really happy with how it came together, of course the brilliant lamp shade from lush designs helps ( luckily I already had this!). This kept me quite for a few hours at least.
