Old 2 New:: DIY Carboy Lamps

A while back I did a weekly series called Old 2 New showcasing things people have transformed that were once old into something new {I'm sure that was obvious from the title, ha!}

I recently came across a fabulous blog called The Rooster and the Hen. After perusing around, I saw these fabulous DIY Carboy Lamps that they made for their master bedroom and thought I would do another little Old 2 New post today.

They found these two glass carboys at a garage sale.

And fashioned lamp shades using craft hoops {found at a yard sale as well}.

Here's a look at the finished lamps in their new master bedroom.

Aren't they amazing?! I love the look of the blue glass with the burlap shades.

Be sure to check out the full tutorial if you want to make your own carboy lamps.

And isn't their master bedroom amazing? I looove that headboard! You can see their full reveal and cost breakdown here.

Hope everyone had a great weekend! We got our first real 'snow' yesterday {it had all melted by the end of the day though :( }

P.S. Does anybody watch Downton Abbey? I've gotten hooked and last night was the season finale. I'm so happy the way it ended! {I won't reveal too much in case anyone watches it and hasn't seen last night's episode}.
