![]() ![]() Of course, I covered the backs in Kraft paper to finish them off, and this makeover was complete! This makes it SO easy, but small finishing nails hammered in sideways like these points would work too. To secure my new prints into the frames, I used my Logan Point Driver: To update the mats, I used Rustoleum Spray primer, then White Satin spray paint:Īllow the painted mats plenty of dry time before adding them to the frame so they don’t stick the glass, about a day or so. Then, I chose the Toile transfer for my new art:Īfter selecting what pieces to frame, I burnished them to the surface. I just flipped it over and painted it going one direction on the first coat and in the opposite direction on the second coat which gives it a slight look of linen: Then, I reused the art that I had removed for my new art. I sealed the frames in Best Dang Wax in Clear. Wet-distressing only removes the paint you added, so that pretty gold comes through. If you sand, you can sometimes take it down to the white resin of the frame. Once the paint was barely dry, I wet-distressed with an old wash cloth: I knew they could be easily updated with transfers, so I removed the existing “art” and painted the frames in two coats of Cotton: Shortly after redoing these prints, I found this set at the thrift store for $4 each: See the before and five more smalls from that post HERE.

I use Sea Glass to create a verdegris look almost:Īfter dipping my Belle Brush in Sea Glass, I wiped most of the paint back off before running it across the surface.Īs you can see, I did not cover the metal completely. I always keep my eyes out for these simple metal pieces because I redo them similarly every time. Next up is this metal basket I picked up at the thrift store for $5: I used this same transfer on these shades HERE when I updated those lamps similarly. Those gorgeous details stand out more now.Īnd adding a transfer to the shade really makes it unique! You will need to place your hand on the inside of the shade to support it so you can firmly burnish the transfer without crushing it. So, I still had a sheet left from this Antique Damask transfer that I decided to use on the shade: The shade felt a bit on the small side, and it was dirty on the backside, but I had this shade in my stash that worked well with the lamp… Glaze acts as a sealer, so there was no need to seal after. The glaze will nestle into all the details. You just brush it on and then wipe it back with a rag: There wasn’t a thing wrong with it, but I decided to enhance and brighten those pretty details a bit more with Whitewash glaze… ![]() Up first is this perfectly good lamp I picked up for $8 at a yard sale: I’ve included a few affiliate links so you can find the products I love.
