Ombre Ceiling Fan


I have a fabulous daughter w/ a fabulous room (click here to take a tour). What is not so fabulous is this ceiling fan.

 So I busted out the fan blades and some craft paints.....
 and made it a little more fabulous. TADAA!

So much better!
(when we move, if the next owners prefer something a little less fabulous, they can just switch the fan blades over).  I think the craft room's ceiling fan also wants a make-over.
Update: click Here to see how I painted it red.

  3. We have a super ugly ceiling fan in our hall. I should try this if I didn't have a million other craft projects on my list...following from the hop...

  4. What a great idea! I had thought of painting the blades on one of our ceiling fans. But, of course, I was thinking of making them all the same color! Thanks for your recent visit to the Cottage at the Crossroads. I hope you have fun picking out your stencil.

  20. The combination of light colors on your ceiling fan has made your room more vibrant and jovial. It also complements the color of your bed blanket and pillows. Hmm.. I guess you do love the color green? True?

  23. Awesome idea! Who would have thought that it was just a DIY project, right? Maybe you can also paint the brass metal holder of the ceiling fan to match everything with the entire interior design of the room. Anyway, good job on this one!
