This lamp makeover from Liz at Love Grows Wild has a cute story to go along with it.  When Liz moved into her husband’s farmhouse as a newlywed, he let her have free reign with the decorating and organizing.  With one exception:  Liz couldn’t get rid of the ugly rooster lamp made with love by her husband’s uncle.
