I love those lamps...There are many things ...Kitty! I love those lamps...There are many things you can do here...I see that there is reds & golds...You could paint it a golden warm brown...do the glue technique...go a little heavy in some areas...and then paint a warm creamy white...let it crackle and go over it with a brownish glaze or mix that brown paint into a glaze....Or crackle in a certain area....Or use any color you like...The metallics would be pretty too! Or paint it a certain color(I like cream since you have some strong colors in there) and dry brush another color over(lke a metallic)...Make sure to have a dry brush....or use a metallic paint in the pot(My favorite because it is easy to use and it adds so much drama)It's called Stencil Magic Paint Creme...You can find it at Hobby Lobby or Micheals...I love it...When you first open it...it will be hard...scrape off the top skin...and it's good to go! I love this stuff...We will use a lot of it in class! I'll think of more ideas and get back to you!!!Screaming Memehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12486356600439852116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6381199676752892205.post-44749773105871508952008-08-24T11:46:00.000-04:002008-08-24T11:46:00.000-04:00Just stopping by and thought I'd leave a comment.....Just stopping by and thought I'd leave a comment...hope you don't mind.<BR/><BR/>I'm so jealous that you work at Hobby Lobby. I've only been in one twice, the one in Littleton, CO. I go crazy in there with all of the lovely goodies!<BR/><BR/>I am so intrigued with HL's tree fluffing procedure. I'll be back to check and see if you give us proper instructions. I think I could use some.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08674115090218386723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6381199676752892205.post-34370328841510856332008-08-24T08:31:00.000-04:002008-08-24T08:31:00.000-04:00Hey girl....me again!

They have it in hammered bronze, hammered copper and a couple of other colors. <BR/><BR/>I've never used it but I was planning on trying it out on a yard sale lamp. That might be interesting for your lamp.<BR/><BR/>I just picked up two really pretty lamp shades at Big Lots for $5. They're cream and chocolate brown. Very pretty.<BR/><BR/>I can't wait to see your tree fluffing tutorial! That is one of my least favorite jobs and it never looks right to me.Kimbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16013989296760980717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6381199676752892205.post-16787110528482643872008-08-22T10:01:00.000-04:002008-08-22T10:01:00.000-04:00If you spruce up your bed be sure to post about it...If you spruce up your bed be sure to post about it! :)Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08208876592515494927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6381199676752892205.post-57452872978501408542008-08-22T08:11:00.000-04:002008-08-22T08:11:00.000-04:00The lamps have great potential.

I say paint them!<BR/><BR/>You will have to give a step by step tutorial on how to fluff a tree!!<BR/><BR/>About your bed...I think pink and white would look GREAT on a black bed with green walls. You could also add green in with your bedding to tie into the walls. As for winter bedding, I just add some chocolate brown to mine so maybe you could do that too, yes, even with a black bed. Or do nothing in the winter! Last winter was the first time I used brown on my all white bedding.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08208876592515494927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6381199676752892205.post-77262465338921148402008-08-21T07:33:00.000-04:002008-08-21T07:33:00.000-04:00I love those lamps, I like the green, but then, I ...I love those lamps, I like the green, but then, I do have green in my home...yeah, the shades...lol..but the lamps are wonderful, can't wait to see what you do with them :)<BR/><BR/>Do you mean if you get that assignment that you will be traveling to HL's around the country to train other stores?
