The painted frame came out great (very french-y), but the mirror looks so new compared to the crusty antique finish of the frame. I must try this technique on the mirror. I wonder if I completely cover the frame with something plastic (like a garbage bag), I don't have to take the mirror out of the frame??<br />Yuko @ northfield gateStudio Yuko Jones https://www.blogger.com/profile/04839090621639281035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3009168790894665633.post-35916208680113541832014-03-12T02:17:30.003-04:002014-03-12T02:17:30.003-04:00I know far too well the ins and outs of trying to ...I know far too well the ins and outs of trying to get that look. For my sister's wedding I did the same thing to about 20 huge vases. The problem with that was trying to not have drips (of the vinegar water or the paint) when it wasn't a flat service. <br /><br />I also found about halfway through that dripping the water on was much better than the spray bottle, and wiping after the paint had dried created the look I had wanted from the beginning. I never thought to spray the back black though, that's really smart.<br /><br />DIY is such a wonderful thing, but figuring things out along the way can sometimes be a bit frustrating too. The glass really brightens up the space and looks beautiful!Gwen, The Makeristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15190034624015945227noreply@blogger.com
