Simple Makeover With Rub N Buff

In the process of removing most of the red around here I almost forgot about the hanging lantern over the breakfast room table. I certainly don't want to replace it, but the color is all wrong so what to do? 

This is how the lantern looked before.

You go buy a tiny tube of Rub n Buff in Antique Gold and get to work.

And now it looks like this!

Yep, a few minutes of my time and a little bit of Rub n Buff and it looks like a brass fixture now.

The part inside that holds the lights was already done in brass, but the inside of the rim was red. I just rubbed some on and it all matches.

Cheapest makeover ever!

I had to do the cover at the ceiling, too. I thought I was finished and looked up and realized that was red, too. Five minutes and I was done.

I still can't believe how easy this was!!

So if you have something that you want to look like brass just go grab a tiny tube of Rub n Buff.
