Cool mirror before and after makeover
Original was gold and outdated.

| BEFORE |
I did a little research on the company and it turns out it was pretty popular in the day…and what I am gathering the mirror is from the 50’s. For 4.99 I thought I will come up with something cool and fun to do with it.
If you know anything more about this company let me know:)
I completely taped them mirror part and then spray painted the outer with ocean breeze color by Krylon, then used a small craft copper glaze for the detail.
Had a vinyl initial and I placed it in the center.
Now where to put it is another story, I do however have two places in mind another post to follow on that.
Up close you can see the glaze
Finished mirror, now where to put it
So cute
This is something my Mom recently made for me…how cute is this? I do get a lot of company and it is a nice thing to have.
And here is where the mirror wound up after all
The aqua looks great on the mirror!! I've always thought that having a guest book is a great idea.
Love that mirror! I picked up a mirror at GW yesterday also!
cute mirror Deb!!!
Cute mirror and love the color change! A guest book is an awesome idea. We have one at the family home up state and it is so much fun to look back over the years and see who has visited and what exciting happened during their stay! Take care 🙂

I love the color you chose for the mirror. That round pillow on the bed in you guest room is wonderful! La
The mirror looks great, Debbie!…Christine
Hi there Debbie,
I LOVE your mirror makeover! The color is fabulous! Do you mind sharing the name of it? I went to the G.W. today too in hopes of finding some treasures to revamp and had no luck! I guess that I should be happy with all the loot I found at last weekends garage sales! The guest book your mom made is so pretty! What a thoughtful gift!
Ack!!! Sorry, I totally just clicked on the wrong post to link up!!! Sorry about that!
Love the mirror! It looks great and I like the color!
Thought I would link up my windows before and after!
Thanks for hosting!
Cutest mirror…
M looks great!

Oh goodness, I was just trying to link up but I got an error 504 message??? So I canceled it and came back but now the linky thing isn't showing up!!!
I love your mirror! It looks mahvelous:)
That looks really good!!!
Debbie, that mirror looks great. Looks like we kind of did the same colors on today's projects except mine is rub n buff and then glaze. That guest book is so nice that your mom made.
Oh Debbie, I love the mirror! You know where it would look so great? In my new bathroom! 🙂
Love the mirror. Where did you find the great vinyl. I have only ordered mine on line.
Cute mirror make over! Love the M on it!!
I love the mirror re-do, it looks great in aqua!
And that guestbook is super sweet!
HAGD,
Cindy
Awesome job on the mirror, seriously! I love the coloring you did on that. You are growing in fame. You were on again at 10:15pm last night, HGTV and then hold on to your seat now, again today at 6:30pm, HGTV. Primetime baby! That's right!
Love the mirror,especially the color. I am sure you will find the perfect place for it. Aqua or teal seems to be the "in" color this year from clothes to home accessories. It really goes with so many other colors.
Debbie
I love that color on the mirror! I need that color for a pot that needs painting on my porch. Smart decal too!
Love, love, love that mirror. And that guest book is such a cute idea. Thanks for hosting again. I'm hosting We're Organized Wednesday this week. If you've organized anything, link up. I would love for you to join the party. There's a giveaway you can enter even if you don't link.
I love the makeover you gave the mirror! Love the color! Would you share the color and maybe a short tutorial? Love the guest book. We keep a guest book/journal at our condo on Anna Maria Island. It is so much fun to read and see what other family members and friends had to say about their visit and what they did while they were there.

I absolutely love your bedspread and pillows! The room looks so homey and interesting with all the textures and colors. The mirror was great too. What a find!

Howdy! This blonde cowgirl is linked Up!! Yippee I remembered the day!! The mirror is gorgeous, where did you get the "M"? It seems as if everyone has a Cricut….I 'm holding off, but it sure would be nice.

I really like the way that mirror turned out and I have the perfect spot for it…(wink)

I love the paint color and the mirror is fabulous…what a find!

Debbie~ Hi! I've tried to add your button to my blog (A Few Good Pieces) and I keep getting an error message… I am so sorry it's not up yet! Any suggestions?
Thanks!!
Sorry, me again 🙂 Keep getting an html error saying the code is unfinished? when i try to paste your blog button, but I got the saturday garage sale button to work ?!? So I used that one, is that ok? Sorry to be such a bother, I love your blog, and I LOVE the mirror!
"M" is for marvelous makeover!
Love the aqua on the mirror–great choice!
Thanks for the invite, I thought it had to be furniture – I just linked up. I posted up the hump picture with your blog url – not sure of the protocol.
From now on I'm in! Thanks again.

Love that retro label on the back of the mirror! Good deal lady!! All looks great!!!Thanks for hosting.
Debbie, I love what you did do the mirror! It looks wonderful. The guest book is really cute, too.
Love the mirror! Teally/turqouisey/robins eggy/antiquey (I have no idea what to really call it – LOL) blue is my newest color obsession!
Thanks for the comments Debbie:) I was thinking about your lamp in the GR and I was going to put a single pearl on a silver chain "necklace" on her. Still can, but I guess I am vanilla that way 🙂
Love the mirror! The initial on it is perfect. I also love the idea of the Guest Book ~ great gift idea too.
Have a wonderful week!
Pat
I cannot believe what you did with that mirror! It looks great! Love those colors too! That rooster pattern is so perfect for you, lol!! I would love to see what you do with it too!
I love that mirror. The sad thing is, I would have passed that up at the GW. You made it beautiful.
I have been back to your blog several times, I decided I better just become a follower. Yea!
I want to link up to your B&A party. How do I get your button if it doesn't have a code to copy underneath it? I'm not very computor savvy.
Brooke
Sorry I'm so late linking up. I'm late for everything! 🙂
That's the same fab color I used for my vintage wall mirror!

I like yours better though. I need to distress mine, or add a glaze or something.
The mirror is awesome. I do love that color. I have ZERO blue/aqua/turq in my house but am finding myself drawn to that color – uh oh redecorating!
I love the mirror and like most Aqua is always a favorite. Love the look of a lot of your creative decor for your home. Glad I found your blog.
I LOVED your mirror so much that I decided to join the party. Hope's OK with you!!
I love the color you chose for the mirror and the decal! Terrific idea – great find!
Kathy
I love the color you chose for your mirror. It is a beautiful piece!
I LOVE it! It turned out great!
I just happened to find your blog thru Cindy's Romantic Home and wanted to comment about your mirror. I too, recently purchased a Turner mirror, in Canada, for $20.00. I really couldn't find much more info. then you have. Come visit sometime to check it out!
Lisa@SuburbanRetreat
love that mirror and the color! fab!
Boy, am I late! This is such a cute redo, Debbie. It's hard to pass up a mirror. The decal brings it up to date. That's such a cute book your mom made-love the flower book mark.
Debbie, that mirror did turn out great. Thanks for linking it up tonight!
Your mirror turned out great ~ love the monogram. Looks like you found a great home for it too. Your guest room is lovely.
Happy New Year
Sue
Well, I suppose by now, you know that mirror looks great 🙂 That decal was an awesome idea. Where did you get it at?
I just found your blog through Savvy Southern Style. I will definitely be back as a follower.
Thanks for sharing.
Morning,Debbie Dear! Oh, I love your remake mirror. I don't know anything about the company but maybe you could Google it and find out something. I love your pretty new color and the initial – you're so good! It looks so pretty on your bedroom wall too.
Wasn't that sweet of your mom to give you the cute little guest book? You'll be making memories all the time! 🙂
Be a sweetie and Happy New Year!
Shelia 😉
Debbie your bedroom turned out sooo lovely! So peaceful and inviting! Now if I can only get mine done.
Nice job on the mirror. I love the little guest book too-Happy New Year!
