Spray paint a doily onto a light bulb or use a silver pen and draw your own designs. When the light shines through, it will cast a beautiful pattern on your walls.
Yes you are correct -- this DIY is merely a suggestion for painting light blubs. You can draw your own design with high temperature paints or use stencils and spray to achieve a similar pattern. Check the link to the picture above if you want the exact patterned light bulb.
Thanks for posting this. I think those look absolutely wonderful! I should definitely talk to my wife about getting those as patio accessories for our new deck!
I like this idea! I’d love to try this on our deck. I want to change our old lighting there. Does it also work on any types of light bulbs, like LED? Anyway, thank you for this idea. ->Allison Shallenberger

unfortunately it's not there either
ReplyDeleteSorry guys, It looks like Plumo no longer carries the lights. :( bummer days.
ReplyDeleteSo do you or do you not put the actual doily on the light bulb?
ReplyDeleteI guess I can use some MacTac, or any adhesive paper, to create the stencil, spray paint and the remove the adhesive paper!
