My mom has made a Goodwill shopper out of me. She has ventured out into blogland and found many a good ideas. Goodwill is the place to go the gather supplies at a cheap price. Like I have said previously the Goodwill in Oxford is excellent and I usually make a weekly trip there. I bypass the clothes and head straight back to the "home" area. I have been looking for a mirror for my vanity table (will reveal later this week). I found this mirror for $12.99.
The mirror was originally gold and then given a coat of shiny leather brown. It wasn't pretty but it was sturdy and a great size. I took it outside and sanded and wiped down.
I gave it a coat of almond colored spray paint first. I didn't have any primer on hand and wanted to get an even layer before I added my color. I ended up painting it a flat brown. There were no hooks on the back and instead of stressing out my husband, I decided to lean it against the wall and vanity.
Not to shabby for a $12.99 Goodwill mirror.
