How to Make a Painted Mirror Frame

 


Painted Mirror Frame Instructions

My passion for thrift store shopping is undeniable. One day, I'll have a small side business where I upcycle and resell thrift store finds. This is also a very cost-effective way to decorate your home. It's also an excellent way to supplement your income.

Painted Mirror Frame DIY

Supplies:

  • Mirror with a frame made of metal, wood, or a combination of the two
  • Spray paint - Because my mirror is made of both wood and metal, I used Krylon ColorMaster Paint & Primer in Matte White, which covers both.
  • Tape for painting
  • 60/80 grit sanding sponge

Instructions:

Remove any dust and dirt from your frame.


Place your mirror on a painting surface and tape it off so that the mirror does not get painted.

Over the mirror, apply 2-3 light coats of paint. Because of the stained wood, I ended up doing three on this, but I love that you could see the cracks in the paint after painting it because it already had a slightly weathered look to it.




Allow it to dry overnight to ensure that the paint is completely dry.

Next, lightly remove paint from some areas of the frame with the 60 grit side of the sanding sponge to give it a weathered appearance.




You can make it as worn and weathered as you want. I only gave mine a small amount because I figure it will become more so naturally as I move it around.

Making A Pin Cushion Jar

As a craft blogger, I have a craft room where I work on my projects, so I'm always looking for ways to organize it and make it look nicer. Sometimes this means repurposing household items, such as mason jars, to store odds and ends. So, today I'm going to show you how to transform a plain mason jar into a pin cushion jar. This project takes about 30 minutes to complete, so you can make one while watching an episode of your favorite show. Do you recall when I made the hair scrunchies? You may remember the fabric I used for that project. It's amazing what one big fat quarter can do. I also made a small fabric garland to hang on the wall out of a few strips of it.
