This is only half of what I accomplished this week end. Next I have to re-sort photos and school work for the school days portions of our lives. Wish me luck. It does get overwhelming at times, but I just tell myself to keep plowing through. Hope you are plowing through this week all right. Drink plenty of fluids and stay out of the heat!! b.
I purchased an old dresser mirror at the thrift store for $5. I primed it with craft paint because I wanted to cover it with dressmaking patterns and I knew you wouldn't be able to see the patterns on the dark wood.
At first I primed it with light colors and then decided it needed a more spectacular underpainting so I added the pink. Big mistake. That pink was impossible to tone down with the decoupaged patterns!
So I toned it down with lighter paint and here it is!! I put the knobs on the top so Megan could hang her necklaces on it if she wants to. I decided not to decoupage the knobs. Good call, I don't know. We'll see. This could continue to be a work in progress.
When we get it hung at her apartment I'll take another photo so you can see it in place.
