I originally created this project and tutorial for SimplyKierste.com. I’m so excited to share with you all today here at The Tale of an Ugly House!<\/p>\n

My husband and I have recently been transitioning our son’s room from a nursery to more of a big boy room. My son, Charlie has been over the moon to see all the new things coming into his room. One item that I just couldn’t settle on was a lamp. I wasn’t finding exactly what I was looking for when I went to the big box store. While flipping though a Pottery Barn Kids magazine one morning, I saw this adorable vintage truck lamp. Given that Charlie loves cars and trucks, it was perfect! The price however was not. $130 for a lamp for a two-year old was a bit much for me to spend. My mind immediately started brain storming. I remembered Hobby Lobby had a great selection of metal cars and trucks. So off to hobby Lobby I went!<\/p>\n

\"IMG_0784copy\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The truck I chose was only $14 with a coupon from their website. If you shop there, their coupons are a must!<\/p>\n

\"IMG_0787copy\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I used my drill and a drill bit that’s made for drilling through metal. I drilled a hole completely through the back of the truck to hold the post for the light.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_0790copy2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

You can buy the post hardware and light kit at any home improvement store in the lighting department. I secured it washer and nut that came in the kit on the top and on the bottom of the truck to hold it in place.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_0793copy\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Next I attached the light kit to the post. This was very simple. Be sure to follow the manufactures instructions. Just a heads up, I did not paint my post black until after I installed the light kit… not the best idea! If you choose to paint your post, it’s much easier to do so before you install the light kit.<\/p>\n

I picked up my lamp shade at Target. You can use any standard shade you want. I chose just a simple, white shade<\/p>\n

\"IMG_2620copy\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I decided to dress it up a bit by adding black ribbon along the top and bottom of the shade. I used just a tiny bit of hot glue to hold it in place.<\/p>\n

Just attach the shade and it’s ready to go!<\/p>\n

\"IMG_2631copy\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"IMG_2629copy\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s such a fun little lamp and it only cost around $30! The best part was my sons reaction. He said, “Oh wow!” I can already tell it’s going to see a lot of love for years to come! This really can be adapted for a little girls room as well. Get creative as you like.<\/p>\n

Thanks for stopping by friends!<\/p>\n
