Petite French Gray Chandelier

I don't have any before pics of this chandelier, but we all know what this looked like.  1980's inexpensive brass chandelier.

 We sprayed it with primer gray spray paint, and then I went over it with gesso and wiped it off.  Some of the areas got a little too white so I went back with a watery brush and brushed on some pewter gray acrylic paint and applied just a wash to even out the color.

 Instead of replacing the candle covers, I made some homemade patterned tissue paper and decoupaged it onto the candle covers.

 Very easy project and I love the results.

 Thanks for dropping by.  Have a great day.
