One Down, One To Go

Hope you all had a fantastic weekend! I am so excited that I was able to squeeze in a project that I've wanted to do for a long time.
Here's a peek of the lamp I made over. I have two matching lamps, but was only able to finish one.

Here's what the lamps looked like before:

...and here's the after:



The burlap lampshade is just a mock-up. Will have to finish that later, as well.
Hope you worked on something fun this weekend, too!

I'm curious ... were the lamps vintage brass? I bought two vintage brass pineapple lamps at a yard sale recently and have been debating whether to paint them or not.
