I had this project in mind for a long time, and was on the lookout for a large hurricane lamp at the home décor stores. I got this one from a home stager, I am actually surprised she sold it to me. It is about 20 inches tall. I purchased Armor Etch for this project, I had never used it before, so was a little anxious, not wanting to ruin the lamp. In fact, I waited too long and then had to do a rush job to get in done in time for delivery. I do like the results, so my confidence has grown for the next project. BTW, that Armor Etch is expensive, so use your coupon! I watched a few YouTube videos just to ensure I knew all the tricks.
One side is the names and date they were married, and the other side says "50th Anniversary". It's always hard to get a present for someone who has everything. It's for my husband's brother and his wife who married very young. (and my husband was 10 years younger).

So awesome! I was scared on my first etching project too but it's so easy. This is so beautiful!
