mirror mirror on the wall

Visit thecsiproject.com

Today I am linking up with the CSI project and showing off my frame project.
My girls have a jack-and-jill bathroom between their rooms. They chose the color purple to be painted in there. I was not in love with the color, so I tried to come up with some ways to make it better. They had a long mirror above their sinks that was not framed. I drew out the pattern I wanted on some wood and my husband cut it out for me. We also drew some over-sized flowers to go on it, and I painted them with all different pastel colors and dotted them with the back of a push pin. I also painted poka dots all over the frame to add whimsy and color. I found some wooden letters at the craft store that spelled out their names, and painted them to match the mirror so each girl knew which sink was hers. It was a very easy and inexpensive way to add some life and personality into that room.
