5 years ago and this is the first time your channel has popped up on my feed.
I just gave you a thumbs up cuz when you introduced your assistance/husband the smile your relationship brought to my face really made up for every sad time this month I’ve had. I know this is two years old but thank you for such a wonderful video and God bless!
instead of painting the inside of my old shades, I took scrap rice paper pieces with coordinated colors and used spray adhesive to layer them inside. When the light is on, it makes a very interesting pattern. This works very well for those old shades that have the paper linings. I like to restore the old ones because they go so well with the vintage lamps.
Just found you and I wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed this tutorial!!! I am wanting to repurpose my current lamps to match my new decor and your video helped me so much! Thank you so much Amy! I can’t wait to check out more of your videos. :)
Soo crazy! I just bought a used lamp today! I’m excited about painting my shade and thanks to your video, I am totally encouraged! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for this video. We dumpster dive and found a dumpster full of lampshades so our 3-year-old and 17-year-old daughter have been painting lots of lampshades. I just subscribed to your channel and can't wait to check out more videos. Thank you for the great video.
Amy , Just found you ! I am so happy I did ! Will be watching all videos of yours ! Just can’t wait ! Love this one !
Ah man, I just bought new table lamps and matching floor lamps! As a matter of fact I I just unboxed them. So, I still have my old ones. Hubby will be Sooooooo happy that I watched this video and will consequently keep the old ones for reburb. (or I may just donate them to the Habitat Restore). hahaha! I am watching all of your videos and have made some purchases to get started on a refurb of my dining room table and buffet. I am learning so much!

Hi, Amy!! Thank you so much for teaching us how to do this! I have so many lamps that I'm excited to transform! Do you have a video on how you painted those bees on that pretty white lampshade?
Thank you so much the tutorial was great & very much needed
Thank you so much for sharing your artistic knowledge with us! What a beautiful world we live in when we creatively repurpose ~♡~
Was doing this with homemade chalk paint and fabric paint since 1970s. Love this. Unfortunately living on fixed income cannot afford products
Lovely tutorial.
Love the look
Thanks for the tutorial. Great help.
Thanks for sharing this! ❣️
Old video to me, just popped up. I subscribed! I have a client who gave me 4 items to transform, , which included 2 old lamps. Lamp bases done with textured paint to look like concrete..and lampshades were gorgeous silk, but totally wrong color. Always looking for new techniques. I used a 40/60 wash of paint/water. They are gorgeous ! Love your tutorials!
