Almost everywhere, from hair to fashion to interior design, the ombre or dip-dye trend is standing strong.
I was curious to try this technique, so I picked up a cheap paper lamp during my last Ikea trip. I wanted to use it as a reading lamp, so decided on a soft, gradual dip dye from a light turquoise to white. And folks, this might have been the easiest DIY ever…
I used acrylic paint that I diluted with water, and started painting from the bottom of the lamp where I wanted the color the darkest. As I moved up the lamp, I added more water to dilute the paint and lighten the color. Ta-da…
Super simple, cheap, and way easy to do! It turned out exactly the way I wanted it too, and looks lovely on this small table.
Your turn!
