A stupidly easy project

Inspired by this post, I decided to basically copy it verbatim.  So, a geode that I recently got from Home Goods for $15 just got a coat of gold paint.

I might try to see if I can remove the gold base.  Otherwise I'll just paint that gold too.  The wood just isn't doing it for me. 

It's similar to this pair of geode bookends that retails for $1,900. 

My project cost about $20, so the question is, now that I've saved $1,880 what am I going to do with all that money?!?!?  Oh, the possibilities!
