Feeling a little crafty

I bought this little frame a couple of weeks ago.





I liked the details on the frame but I wasn't really crazy about the colors.  I decided that I would like it best in a muted white color so I painted it with my (faux) chalk paint.  After it was dry I mixed up a glaze using acrylic craft paint and a glaze medium.





It turned out exactly as I had hoped it would.  I love the detail that is highlighted by the glaze.  Now to find the perfect picture to use in the frame!!

    Well well - welcome back Suzan!!!
    LOVE how this mirror turned out - isn't it just amazing how things can be transformed from " meh " to fabulous with just a little paint?
