Once the paint is stripped, you could soak it in a very fine paint or ink wash to dye it, or if you want a bit more fancy look you can buy glow in the dark paint, frost paint to make it look like snow, magnetic paint to make it come off and on easy, crackle paint to give it a weathered look, or mirror/chrome paint for a shiny tint look. My local homehardware sells crackle,glow in the dark,magnetic,chrome/mirror paint, chaulkboard paint, etc... just some ideas.

Chrome/mirror is cheap around $9 for the spraypaint type, chaulboard,magnetic and glow in the dark are more pricey round 20-30 range, as it's about a pint of paint, which if you do any custom work will last you a long time and many a projects. The crackle finish stuff is a bit more pricey or atleast can be, as sometime it's a 2-3 part system, same with the paint you can find to turn items into stone/rock texture, or the camoflauge type system. Another avenue to try would be to hit up an art store like Michael's and look at the window/glass paints typically they're a vibrant color but dry translucent enough for light to shine through.
