In between bear making and bear painting I've also been shabbying up a few pieces. Just another thing I like to do. It's fun to transform old pieces into lovely fresh new pieces, but still have them retain the old worn appearance.
The frame on this mirror has some lovely sculptured features. The frame itself is made from some type of synthetic material and had a gold finish. I've painted the frame in my favourite antique white and sanded the edges lightly, so as touches of gold show through, to give it that wonderful french provincial appearance. I felt it didn't need any decorative painting added to it, as it has it's own decorative sculpture.
I've then hand varnished with several coats for protection.
The mirror has some very tiny scratches which are hardly noticeable.
I intend to list this in my ebay very soon, but if you would like to make a purchase the price is $30 plus postage.
