I've been waiting for you, my lovely.
 
I love vintage mirrors. They are heavy, not plastic, and I am particularily fond of gold French Rococo as I like paring it with neutral shades, textures and even something a little rustic. If you look in the mirror, you will see the wall where this beauty will be placed.
ps: no I don't have a baby, that's a dog gate!

So the day I received this mirror, went like this:
  •  go to an auction with husband and son
  •  leave the auction with husband because I am tired, (insert yawn)
  • tell son a couple of things that I like, but no need to get the mirror
  • text from son said, "you liked the gold mirror, right?"
  • "It's yours"
Awe, it's mine.

Now, if that child of mine could find this little French Rococo styled headboard at an auction for $20.00 we'd be in business!


Blessings, Ele

My Favorite Table

Fav Table-

CRAFT TIP: The table (originally stained wood) received a coat of white flat paint. I used gold Pilot paint marker to write (cursive) flower names in Latin and English.


Wait at least 24 hours for the writing to dry and further embellish with Plaid Gold Wax Metallic Finish. I used my finger to wipe the wax on the edges of the table. I also lightly wiped the wax across some of the writing.
I have more Birthday treats to show you, so be sure to come back later in the week.

Blessings,
Ele
