Mirror, mirror - Do Over

This is a pretty old (and as usual brown) mirror.  It's very heavy glass and wood and I'll need to drill new hooks into the back to make sure it can hang horizontally.  I like to start with the REVEAL - here it is finished and in the shop window.

The reason I swooped and bought it was that it's got a really pretty design carved into the frame.  Here's the original brooown version...

I took the pic on Saturday - guess what, blue skies in Glasgow.  Yay!! I forgot what sun looked like after months of feeling like I was in a Film Noir (with all that rain).

I gave it a couple of coats of a grey chalk paint.

Then dry brushed the detail with Chalk White to bring out the design... so pretty!

It was only in the window a few hours before someone came in to ask about it... not sold yet, but I don't think it will be around for long!
