We did that for our <a href=\"http:\/\/ourpeacefulplanet.com\/outdated-kitchen-transformation\/\">Outdated Kitchen Transformation Series<\/a> . We used a large wire bowl that we painted white.

However, I had three other rooms that had plain old three bulbs with a round or square cover that were held on by a screw thing in the center.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I wanted to do something simple, inexpensive, yet unique and safe. Then, an idea hit me. Oil markers&#8230; the kind that are used for decorating crockery mugs and dishes, then baked to set the ink. You can find them all on Pinterest or a good search. Now, as I&#8217;ve said many times before,\u00a0 I&#8217;m no artist so I needed something simple I could share with those of you who also might be like me.\u00a0 (If you do happen to be an artist you can really go crazy with these!)\u00a0 Pay attention to the pointers given then grab the color or colors you want and create your own custom light shade!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">FYI For our living room and dining room we hit the thrift stores and bought two chandeliers fairly cheap.

But even I can put even dots or dashes or blocks around the edge of something and not have it look too bad so feel free to check out some of the ideas online others have done when drawing with oil markers on cups and plates. You just might find some designs you could do free hand.<\/p>\n<p>I strongly suggest not covering your shade with a lot of paint.\u00a0 Keep the design light and sparse or even just on the borders, otherwise it defeats the purpose of letting light through. Think of putting small images scattered around it or scallops or dots on the edges. Just something simple but unique. We&#8217;ve shown you what we&#8217;ve done to get you started and even given you a couple patterns. The cool thing is you can see through the glass and put a small pattern behind it needed to help you trace!<\/p>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-28807\" src=\"http:\/\/ourpeacefulplanet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/blank630x20-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"630\" height=\"20\" \/><\/h2>\n<h2>TRIANGLE ON SQUARE COVER<\/h2>\n<p>This is a 12.5&#8243; square that is in my craft room whose main color is teal.
