I got to thinking....several years ago I bought a mirror at a church sale for $3. I love scroll work and it caught my attention.
I have seen a lot of glossy black mirrors lately that I really like. I have even seen this style in picture frames. (Yes that is my foot in picture sorry!)
So I bought a can of Krylon Glossy Black and started to spray paint the frame.
You know how much I like to mix styles and I thought this would look great over my new toy box makeover (click on right)
The entryway is almost finished. I would like to get two more pillows for the bench maybe in a tone on tone mustard color.
This is the finished look!
$5 for a can of paint
Total cost of project $8
ZGallerie price $349
$341 savings! (and no tax)

Wow, what a beautiful mirror. I'm sure I would have grabbed it too for that price.
Gorgeous Deneen! I love your inspiration, but your knock off is even better. Thanks for joining my newbie party.

Deneen.. love this mirror. In fact I love your blog. Thanks for stopping by.. will def follow you to see what you come up with.. very good vision. I may be somewhat of a copy cat!
Ooooh! I LOVE your mirror! I actually like it better than your inspiration. Anyone with $349 can have the original. But yours took creativity and imagination to come up with a unique version. And you can't put a price on that!
$3 what a find! love it and it saved you hundreds of dollars! Hard to believe people actually have that much disposable cash LOL Good luck blogging, I just know you will love it and make tons of friends! I found you at Debbie Doos, I am your newest follower, hope you can visit and follow me back.

Hi Deneen, I am loving your $3.00 mirror. Actually it looks better than the original one. I hope you will join my new party starting 3/17. See you there.

Hi Deneen!
I'm so happy to have met you at the party :) I'm a JERSEY GIRL too! Your blog is wonderful with so many great crafts and recipes... The recipes... MHHMMM.... I've already saved a couple. As soon as I'm not dieting anymore (Who am I kidding? When I feel like cheating,) I plan to try some. The first one will be the calzones. Now if only I could find a Jersey/New York style Canoli recipe, I'd be in business. I'm following!

It looks great! I found a similar mirror & painted it hot pink. So much more fun than paying hundreds at Z Gallerie! Great blog.
Warmly, Michelle
Looks outstanding!
Blessings,
Linda
Incredible savings! way to go :D
I love this mirror! Great knock-off. Why pay $349 when there are yard sales!?!
I'm a new follower.
