DIY Sharpie Pendant

Friday, January 07, 2011

I love some good Sharpie Art! This is a great project that Sara Robbins achieved
when she wanted a new light fixture but didn't have the resources to buy a new one.
 This was her existing pendant: 



With her dad's advice on how to reuse the wiring, she removed the metal shade and bought
a new lampshade from Target.

She used a pencil and a ruler to draw the design on the inside of the shade. She then
held it up to a light source {to see her lines} and filled it in with a metallic sharpie
{did you know these came in metallics??!}

 

Pretty great, right?

That's it. I just ordered up a rental crane and am about to dip our entire house in white paint. Well....maybe not, but- I'm officially slapping a coat of white paint on our 70s 2.5" oak wood floors (blech) and anywhere else I see fit- how do you feel about white wood floors? Dying to know.
