DIY Baseball Lamp (Pottery Barn Knockoff)
If you're giving a room a refresh, complete your new look with a custom and unique lamp. This tutorial walks you through how to transform a simple lamp into a fun sports-themed baseball lamp.
What You Will Need
- Lamp (I got mine from the thrift store)
- Lamp shade (also purchased from the thrift store)
- Spray paint
- Craft paint or vinyl
- Duct tape
- Cricut machine
- Cricut cut file
- Card stock or vinyl
- Red permanent marker
- Paintbrush
Instructions
- Cut off the end of the pull and tape off the remaining pull. Paint the base the color of your choice.
- Paint the inside and the outside of the lamp shade with white paint.
- Take a red permanent marker and draw the baseball lines. A plate can be helpful for the general circle shape, then add the cross stitches by freehand.
- Use your Cricut to make a stencil for the Louisville Slugger logo. I cut mine from plain card stock.
- Wrap red masking tape around the lamp to create the "grip area" part of the bat.
