This mirror has been in the family for as many years as I care to remember. It is not a good piece in as much as it was not well made but it has some charm. The painting at the top in the middle of a glass of roses, is original. I decided to paint it Scandinavian pink as I needed to justify buying that colour (not just to paint the insides of drawers) and I washed over the beading with Chateau grey. This combination has now grown on me but I am still not sure. Once I find a place for it I may feel happier in my choice. What do you think? Please be honest, I can take it, and if the worst comes to the worst I can repaint it. By the way I received more paints today. Excited but unable to use them as I have to make approx 120 cupcakes for Sunday for the Fete de la Tartine.
And for my next project which I have already pretty much completed but cannot show you as yet are these:-
There are two of them, cabinet doors given to me by a kindly neighbour. They are handcarved and quite old but rather rustic. Once again not what I would call good pieces but that is the beauty of them as there is no guilt in having a go at giving them a new life as pictures on the wall.
