Mirror Makeover

I eventually re-use all the things I save.

They just wait for inspiration.

Before we left on our road trip to Texas we did a Pottery Barn mirror knock-off. 

The wall behind Kim's sofa needed something. 

I had a saved mirror in our garage for years that we could salvage.

It hung in our house in the 80's when Kim graduated from high school.

You should have disco music playing in your head now!

All it needed was some updating. 

Larry used 3/4" rounded molding

and corner molding for the chipped edge.

We sprayed the molding with

 Rust-Oleum's oil rubbed bronze.

Glued the vertical strips on, then cut and added the 

smaller horizontal strips.

We used a French cleat mounted on the back 

and on the wall to hang it securely.

 It reflects the fireplace on the opposite wall. 

 And her pretty oil painting.

It also brings more light into the room.

The dog model is her fur-baby Fritzie.

He's part of our Yorkie family.

They all had a nice visit too.

Go Forth and Salvage Something!
