Mirror Mirror on the wall

I forgot to take a picture of this mirror before, but got it at a garage sale awhile ago. My intention was to paint the whole thing, but wanted to do something a little different. It was all wood before and here it is after. I loooove it. Now I just need to find a spot for it.

Please excuse the blinds in the reflection:)

#12, almost half way there!

I finally painted this mirror in my room. And I think its MUCH better....

I dont have a picture of this mirror before..darn it. It was laminated wood, like this kind of a look.

I FINALLY got it painted after having it in my room for over a year. I love her.

For whatever reason it doesnt like to stay put, it wants to spin and lay flat....I have to figure out some kind of bolt, washer combo to fix that. Thats is why you will see those little fabric flowers stuck in the side:)

Mirror, Mirror on the wall (19)

Ever make something to sell or as a gift and then you want to keep it? That’s what happened to me with this mirror. It turned out so cute, when I went to take pictures of it, it just made my room a room. But I made it to sell, so its currently up for grabs. Here it was before :

And here it is now.

$70

The hubby showed me some new distressing techniques and it looks so cool. I really need to invest in a better camera. These pictures don’t give it justice. I don’t think anyone in this town reads my blog now that we’ve moved….but jut in case….if you live in the Vegas area this mirror is for sale. The measurments are 46’w by 36’h. Its huge! Its all real wood, so its very sturdy. I have it here as a dresser top mirror, but I think it would be great on the wall above a couch or fireplace also.

Just some goodies

I've been working on a few projects that are close to my heart, so are taking me longer than they should. I have redone one peice twice and am still making a few changes, so #5 will be coming soon! Im so excited about it and want it to be just perfect.
So in the meantime Ive been doing a few little projects around the house that Ive found. The first are these great mirrors I found at a thrift store for super cheap and could see they needed some love and updating. I was planning on selling them on esty, but my wall decided it needed them more:)
Here they are after rescuing them from the outside/shed area of a thrift store:

And here they are now, loveing their new life. I think they would like to be called 'Jack and Jill'

My next project I found at a garage sale with some dried flowers in it. I loved the shape, but have no orange in my entire house. So, I painted her up and got some great flowers to change her look.

Isnt she pretty?!

I found this great chair at the flea market and just cant bear to change it. I think its so funky and already the perfect color. No one can have enough extra seating, right?

Thats all for now. I have two peices in the making that have homes! People actually want to pay me for what Im doing!! Im so excited. Those are soon to come............

Make sure you check out my friends new etsy page that I will also be selling some items on soon, including some frame sets that I finished last night.
