One of the little project-ettes I've completed is a mirror makeover for a client's nursery. If you follow The Green Room Interiors on Facebook, you may have already seen the inspiration board.

Enter this little number I spotted at a local Antique Mall. Nice, but I thought we could do better. So, after the sanding and priming, it got a coat of fresh white paint.
Better, but I still wanted to do more to bring out the stud detail of the mirror, which I think is its most interesting feature.
Familiar with Liquid Leaf? It claims it's a one-step gold leaf finish in a bottle. And, it's only about $5 at Walmart.

I'm pretty happy with the results. The gold is warm and soft, and I love it against the white paint. I used one of Shelby's small artists brushes to apply the paint to the studs.

This mirror is a surprise/gift that I plan to deliver to my client Friday afternoon. I hope she likes it!
