Shabby Chic Mirror


I had a great find the other day, this old mirror. It's beat up but sturdy. It's a nice regency style, though its a reproduction from the 60's or 70's I think. I am priming and painting it to a shabby chic or cottage style...but not quite, because I'm using taupe with white designs instead of all white. I'm not sure if it will go in the breakfast nook or over my piano. I might have to decide when I'm done. But I'm very excited about the project.

UPDATE 3-9-10. The completed mirror can be seen in this post

  3. I vote the breakfast nook. Your art in by the piano is so amazing- I think it should be your focal point! Be sure to show us the final picture.

  4. What a fun project! Was that at the yard sales (aka Complete Bliss)?

  5. Hmmm, seems like a breakfast nook should be a mirror free zone.
