Sometimes this pile of mirrors gets to me, like that unsettled feeling you get when you know you have something to do but you just can’t put your finger on it.
For almost every dresser I bring home, there is a mirror included with it (sometimes two mirrors). These mirrors are my “something to do.” But, what do I do with them. When I have benefit garage sales, I can
barely give these old mirrors away. I
don’t think many people want an old mirror.
Truth is, I know these mirrors can be something wonderful, if only!
The thing about me is I’m not your “attention
to detail” type of person. I’m not
crafty, I don’t own all sorts of tools for up-doing and repurposing and I’m not
that inventive with this type of thing.
Chalkboards.
CHALKBOARDS!
I want to do more things like this.
But the not crafty part is a problem.
Also, the counselor and I had a splendid yonder night at the
Nickel Creek concert.
I highly
recommend I am a Lighthouse & When You Come Back Down. The lyrics, musical talent and vocals of this group, well,
I was mesmerized. Their music is like a
good massage, hitting just the right places and feeling ‘oh so good when you
think you can’t feel any better.
Yes,
Nickel Creek was awesome.

ummmm... not crafty? You are the best kind of crafty! I would love a chalkboard like that! Someday soon (hopefully) when I move, I would love to purchase one from you! btw, I bought a dresser off you about a year and a half ago, and also had you paint a changing table in case you're wondering who I am :)
ReplyDeleteHow are you, dear girl. Thank you for the kind compliments. I have so many mirrors, I'm sure to paint you up something beautiful.
DeleteLove the chalkboards!! What did you use for the board part just particle board?? They are awesome!!
ReplyDeleteHello Samantha. I'm finding most mirrors have a thin wood backing, so once I get rid of the mirror I just paint the backing. I then use some small nails to put it all back together. No extra cost for supplies, so I like that.
DeleteLove your chalkboards! Love Nickel Creek! Have their debut album, and every song is wonderful. So glad you got to see them live.
