From old to fab

Hey Divas. So I have a lot of spare time to think up projects. This latest project was done to go with my Desk to Vanity project that I featured on one of my pages (Facebook.com/IAmaMakeupJunkieDiva) and on YouTube. So I had a old hand mirror that I wanted to glam up a bit to go with my vanity. The only problem was.....it was royal blue and not Tiffany Blue. So I decided to spray paint it.
The color I used is called ocean blue by krylon. I purchased it at walmart. I sprayed it and then used a clear coat on the back so that it had a nice shine. This wasn't enough though so I ordered some decoden pieces to go on my new mirror.
I ordered those pieces from a store on etsy.com and the glue I already had. PI purchased it probably from Michael's. I also got flat back pearls to go with the project.
Here is my end product. The letters I dug up from my craft draw. I painted them white to go with the theme and added aqua colored rhinestones to two of the letters. I thought the white pearls were a little plain so I added black rhinestones. Now I have a glam mirror that was very inexpensive and looks great on my vanity. Hope this gave you either a cute idea or inspires you to add a little glam to your makeup space. Stay Fab.
