My Own Little DIY Project
Several weeks ago I was walking around Ross and found this little gem on clearance.
Gem you ask? Yes, a gem. If you can just look past the ugly gold color and nasty texture, there is quite a bit of potential.
I headed to my local DIY girl, Jamie. You know who she is, the girl that transforms her rooms over night, has style like you wouldn't believe, and an eye for home decor. She was nice enough to help me out and even had all the stuff to re-vamp my mirror. What better way to create the perfect mirror than with a fresh coat of crisp white paint?
The finished product was better than I could even imagine!
I hung it over my white-themed bed and it just seemed to complete the room. I have fallen in love with it.
I don't know what it is, but doing a project yourself just makes it that much cuter. It's so fun to see something transition from ugly to glam. Luckily I'm related to the Master DIY-er.

WHAT?!!! I'm pretty much in love with this post and that mirror. It turned out awesome! LOVE it. Thanks for the shout out, you give me too much cred. Besides, you're the one who picked out the mirror and saw its hidden potential.
And can I just say that I LOVE your bedroom? Where is the blue, bird pillow?
Very nice! You have just inspired me to redo the mirror that I've been hanging onto.
I too, love your room and that mirror looks perfect above your bed.
I L-O-V-E how the mirror turned out!! Love that you thought to paint it! Just call up Jamie--she'll get you going on any project!
Perfect room for a perfect mirror or perfect mirror for a perfect room!
