When I saw this
acid mirror from The Idea Room, I fell head over heels! Check hers out, it's
beeeeautiful! I couldn't find a mirror that size and I was unsure of what MY results would be so when I saw this mirror for less than $3 at Rescued Treasures I thought it would be a good trial mirror. Little did I know it would turn out FABULOUS!
I'm not typing a tutorial because you can check out her directions as well as a link in her post with details on the
muriatic acid step.
I couldn't get my mirror out, so I taped paper on it to cover it up while painting the frame.
After that I used a piece of fabric from what I already had. I love this teal damask print!
Last, I cut the vinyl lettering out with my Silhouette. I LOVE it!!
Amy from the Idea Room said it was one of her favorite projects, and I have to say I agree!
It's hard to take pictures of a mirror without reflections messing with it, but it looks even better in person.
I've got my eyes out for a larger, cheap mirror! :) Thanks for the great idea, Amy!
Oh my goodness! I love it! It came out so great! I love the teal damask! A girl after my own heart. It is such a fun and surprisingly easy project right? Thanks so much for sharing it with me. I would love to share it with my FB fans if that is okay! Great job!!
