I sprayed a couple coats of "heirloom white".
I also realized it's very difficult to take a good picture of a mirror since there is always a bad reflection!
This is the only angle that didn't reflect the outdoors, or my kitchen, or me.
I learned that the "button" that was on the mirror was actually screwed on like a cabinet handle....so I just took the knobs off my bedside table (which I plan to replace with more feminine hardware to define our "his" and "hers" bedside tables) and sprayed them black and screwed them in place.
Here is our old kitchen nook. Not a great picture, but we don't seem to take many pictures of people eating...or an empty table....so this was Morg carving a pumkin last fall. We had a different oak table, chairs and light fixture. New kitchen nook, a little whiter and brighter.
OH MY GOODNESS!!!! I LOVE the new mirror!! I looks so gorgeous! You did an awesome job!!! I love the before and after, the after is much better, although I never though the before looked bad!
ReplyDeleteWOW!!!!! You did an excellent job on that mirror..Looks fantastic...especially with the new light fixture!
ReplyDeleteThat is amazing the difference, and it always looks that clean right? You are always so put together. I need to take lessons form you!! Do you do any sanding or do you just spray and it adheres to your furniture and stuff? I wouldn't mind spraying my kids headboards white but don't want to deal with the sanding part... I need you to teach me your tricks. LOVE the mirror
ReplyDeleteWow, I really love the transformation! I think we have a similar approach to design on a budget. I can't wait to look through your archives.
