I bought a mirror at a thrift store maybe a month or so ago. It was slightly hideous, gold paint, with someone at one point seeming to consider spraying it silver, but quit very early on. But it had amazing potential. I considered painting it gold, but tonight decided black was the color of choice. I love how it turned out. When it's held upright it's so chic, and glamourous. And you wouldn't ever guess that I paid $10! The Before:
The After:
Detail: (sorry, the sunlight was a little odd....it's a flower pattern)
I clicked over to your blog after seeing that we made almost the same comment on the sartorialist today, only to find that you also live in maryland!
