My first DIY, be gentle!

My MIL had this giant mirror that for some reason DH was obsessed with bringing home. I figured WTH we could make it look different with some work...it was painted a basic tan color before...

So here it is, my crackle mirror! Not a hard project and I'm in LOVE with the way it came out!

Apologies in advance for my crappy blackberry pics...its just easier than pulling out the camera!

Be gentle my asss. It looks great!!!

You did a terrific job, I bet someone would buy that exact same mirror from Peter Andrews for around $100!

Wow, it's great! There's something about crackling- IMO it's not as easy as it looks- but that looks terrific!

how do you do that?



It gets primed with GLUE, believe it or not, and then you paint over it. It cracks right away, its so cool!
