I totally took your advice…
and BAM! No brass, no trim, and I’m a-lovin’ my new lamps. ;)


The brass was lovely, but painting over it united the whole lamp in a simple, beachy white way. Thanks SO much for your help,
You guys are the best!
Want another before, during, and after?


psst, don’t forget about the upcoming summer drink par-tay!

Get your recipes ready! ;)


























I did a post about sweet tea today and thought, "When is that drink week thing?" Here I thought I wasn't going to have anything to contribute!
Ann,The lamps look great, I wasn't sure what would look the best, but I think this is it.
love the lamps! Also, thanks for posting pics of your house that looks like you live there. :) too often on blogs I see houses all tidy and neat, I don't post may photos on my blog yet (my house is a DISASTER!) but seeing these makes me feel better about non perfect photo ops! :) Love your blog!
