DIY Mercury Lamp

Yet another craft...

 Their Version  $269.00                                                My Version $30.00

What You'll Need:

1.Krylon Looking Glass Spray Paint. (I got mine at Hobby Lobby)

2. A spray bottle full of water.

3. A glass lamp, vase, votive... etc.

I've been wanting to try this out for a while. 

I went to Walmart and bought a lamp and a shade,

you could also thrift it just as easy, for much cheaper.

then I brought it home, sprayed it with water and, while it's wet, 

sprayed it with The Looking Glass paint. 

You will have some drippings so dab it up with a paper towel and let it dry. 

Keep adding layers of paint till you get the Mercury look you want. 

(I added a lot after I took the picture above.)

If you put too much on, or want a bigger effect, 

randomly dab a cotton ball soaked in rubbing alcohol on your lamp.
