Mirror, mirror on the wall...


I love how this mirror experiment turned out, 
but wow is it hard to take pictures of a mirror!  
I bought this mirror many years ago at the ReUse Center in South Minneapolis.  
Poor Peter cringed everytime I made him move it, and if he'd had his way it would have been in the trash a long time ago!  




I took some sandpaper and removed the back side of the mirror in spots to give in a weathered antique look.  
Then, I found some fabric I love- this is a table cloth I got on clearance from Target, 
and ModPodged it to the back side.  
I still need to find a funky frame for it and spray paint the frame- Mustard or Turquoise???


I love the birds and the way the mirror peaks in and out-



Maybe when I find the right frame I'll try taking another round of pictures.  Any hints?
