Ornate Mirror Makeover

I found this ornate mirror on Craigslist for $80 last winter, and I was thrilled when the seller said okay to my $50 offer, as the mirror was in great shape. It had no scratches and no broken parts, so other than it’s color, it was in perfect condition.
After storing this beautiful mirror in our basement for over 6 months, I decided to give it a makeover in October. I didn’t have a vision when I started working on it, so as usual, I just started with taking the mirror out and getting the frame ready for painting.
Using my homemade chalk paint recipe for my paint sprayer, I prepared the chalk paint and and readied my paint sprayer.

Here is my completed mirror!
I am so happy about the spray I chose to stencil. It is subtle and gives a beautiful etched-glass effect!
Here are some close-up pictures for you to see the details.
Oh before I forget, if you like this Irish Blessing stencil design, you can find it on our blog post and DOWNLOAD IT FOR FREE (only for your personal use.)
Thanks for reading!
