DIY! Got to love it!

I have always considered myself to be a pretty "crafty" person. This has come in handy while trying to decorate on a budget. I received a beautiful buffet for my birthday that was just screaming for a mirror to hang over it. I knew what I wanted..something along these lines.

However, since I can't afford this one...I made this one!


I inherited a huge mirror with an unfortunately ugly brown frame and happened to find this fabulous paint called Modern Masters. It's a line of metallics that aren't obnoxious. They have a great color called "warm silver". It's not quite gold, but not quite silver.

After two coats of paint and a clear finish I have a pretty decent copy-cat!
