Painting: Mirrored Closet Doors--YUCK

We live in a house that was built in 1917--nothing fancy, just a nice little farmhouse style home. Previous owners added a closet to our upstairs bedroom (thanks for than) and installed ...»
good quality mirrored closet doors. Hurray for quality and no thanks to the seventies flashback. Just don't have the bucks to replace them right now, but my husband says short of that, I can do anything I want to them. Okay, he has hidden the sledge hammers. Are there any specific techniques or products to paint them? Ideally, I would paint them the same color as the room.

  • I stained all the slats and set them aside so I wouldn't get black paint on them. I then painted the outside and inside Black and distressed the edges.Then with my nail gun and some glue attached the slats 6
  • As You can see I already started to sand the Blue paint off the top 6
  • And I had already removed the drawers... I will probably use them for something else...
  • I then removed the back of the dresser because I wanted to give it that open look, and then removed the drawer runners and replaced them with a  new bracket in the front and back centered for where the new shelf was going to be.
  • The decorative piece in front was from a piece of scrap board that I drew out the pattern and Cut it out with my jig saw.The Slats for the shelves are made out of a scrap 2x6 that I ripped on my table saw to 2"w x 1/2" Thick 1
  • I then thought I needed some storage bins to fit on the shelf so I had this drawer with this neat looking design on front that I thought would be great cut in half to make 2 bins
  • This is how they turned out.
  • Then I added some neat nickle plated handles to the bin and there you have it No more blue dresser instead a brand new TV Stand...and I did it all by myself..:) 7

Faux Ceramic Vases!

I had a bunch of cheap thrifted and dollar store vases that were taking up space. I spray painted them with white spray paint and now they look like ceramic! You can see exactly how I did it and what I used here:
