Paint a lampshade

You don't have to be a professional to turn a boring lamp into a one-of-a-kind find. Paint or stencil the shade using acrylic crafts paints, and it instantly becomes an original that matches your decor perfectly. Or stick with a solid-color lampshade and spray-paint the base for an easy update.
