While at Goodwill shopping for a halloween costume, I came across a black wooden lamp in good condition. I was immediately inspired and decided to make it my next creative project. After sanding off the black paint (which produced a very messy, black, chalk-like substance all over my dorm room), I painted it white and started to decide what exactly I was going to paint. I have done Lilly prints in the past, and I decided to keep with that trend. A few different ones came to mind, but wanted to do something unique, so I chose this blue print from the Lilly Kiki dress.
I feel like it is not as well known as the others, and it was also looking to be the most challenging design, and I am always up for a challenge. I took a lazy Sunday and turned it into a painting day, which turned out to be incredibly relaxing. Can I just paint every day, please?! Here is the end result! I just need to add a clear coat...

That's really really pretty. I also happen to just be a huge fan of that Lilly dress, too.
