Old Window Turned Into a Christmas Decoration Mirror

When my friend had new windows installed in her home I rescued the old victorian sashes she replaced from the dump.
I love vintage and rustic styled Christmas decorations. Therefore I upcycled one of these windows into a lovely Christmas decoration for my mantle. As well as looking very festive, I'd used a special spray paint on the glass to turn the window into an antique style mirror.

If you don't have an old window to hand you can achieve the same effect with an old picture frame with glass in it.
I love Christmas words and sayings. For the window I decided to paint one of may favourites "Jingle all the way". You can print this out from my blog at the end of the post.
I used a red glass paint for my sign and painted 3 coats in total.
To turn the painted window into a mirror I used a special mirror effect spray paint. Click here to see which one I used.
To finish off my Christmas Decoration Mirror attached some brass cup hooks so I could hang ornaments from the mirror.
I actually rescued a few old windows. I turned another one of them into a window herb garden which you can see by clicking here.
