Dining Room Mirror

I said yesterday I would post today about my mirror!!

I am still so 'happy' that my hubby found this at a yard sale, early summer, for only....$40!



I didn't mind the darker frame color when I had all darks in my decor. Now that I'm attempting to lighten things up, I decided that in my dining room with the white table, black hutch, and my black stripe curtains, the dark espresso really didn't jive too well along with the other colors.
Before:


So, this past weekend, out came my paintbrush, painters tape and my gold metallic paint pot!! I love how it turned out. {Along with my fall pumpkins and gourds}








After the gold was finished, I had moved onto painting my couch, when I decided I wanted to do some very light brush strokes of white paint, I really like the little highlights of 'barely there' white. I think it added a whole  different feel to the frame.
