How fun. I LOVE a good deal. I found some outdoor lanterns that I liked and wanted to put them outside our family cabin, however, at $76.00 a piece, I didn't like that. The other day I was in at Lowe's and they had some of their lighting on clearance. They had the style of light I wanted, but it was in a funny silver finish instead of black....Well, on clearance for $21.00 for two, I brought them home anyway. A little black spraypaint with some silver flects in it left over from who knows what and a little outdoor vinyl and voila.....two metal outdoor lanterns for $21.00. Gotta love that! I love how they turned out plus I love how easy it was to add the outdoor vinyl to the glass. Yeah....custom look for a fraction of the cost. I love a good savings and can't wait for my hubby to see the final product. I think he'll be impressed. :-) Do you like them?
I decided to enter in into these challenges
