I'm Haley, and I'm addicted to spray paint. (DIY Mirror and Frame Makeover)

Ok, so I'm not addicted to spray paint in that I huff it in my backyard or anything.  Rather, I've recently discovered the wonders that a $4 can of paint can bring to my old things... or new things for that matter.

Not long ago I posted about my new clover mirrors from Target.  They came black with red marks on the edges, and I decided that they'd fit better in my house if they were silver.  Emboldened by my recent lamp painting project, I decided to go for it.  It took almost an entire can of paint, but I daresay they look a lot better now in my guest room. (Now I wish I'd bought three... oh well)


With the remainder of my can of paint, I decided to transform two picture frames I've had for years so they can join the silver frame grouping that's underway in my bedroom.

After:


Now I'm itching for something else to paint.  Jenn at Peas and Crayons just transformed some $1 Michael's frames with her can of paint and I may start on those next!
