What a fun project this was. The goal was to personalize a mirror for our bedroom. When I found this colorful one on clearance at Hobby Lobby in the spring, I bought it and it sat in a closet for a few months before I decided what to do with it.
This scrapbook paper spoke to me. I matched the purple as best I could and alternated petals with different finishes – one with DuraClear Gloss Varnish and one with iridescent and a bit of white scraped on.
Repaint the black with Glossy Black.
Add in the black lines to separate the petals…… and a touch of Stampin’ Up tube of Dazzling Details that I got as a free sample.
Tada! I like it. Here it is hanging in our bedroom.
It matches the splashes of purple I’ve added to our bedroom. I plan to make a textured pillow for the chaise.
I got some new glass lamps and we’re good to go.

Thanks, Kelly! I feel good every single time I see it. 🙂
Love the splashes of purple! I can’t wait to see all the decor you’ve been working on! And I was looking for lamps like that a while back … where did you get yours?
It’s almost finished and then I’ll give you a private tour. 🙂
Yay! I am still far, far, far from finished! Jealous!

Purple is my favorite color so why not have it as many places as possible? Thanks for visiting!
