When we got new appliances for the kitchen, all in black glass, very classy, I wanted to get a new coffee pot. We had an old white Mr. Coffee, very functional. But no longer complimentary to the new appliances.
So the new appliances sought an alliance with none other than ----Darth Vadar!!
The old coffee pot choked out a lame good bye and Darth Vadar is on board.
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.
