An Old Mirror gets a New Look

I have an old mirror that a friend gave me hanging in my foyer.  I love the mirror, I just wanted to brighten it up and give it a new look.  
Well, today was the day.  Sorry, I forgot to take a before pic with it hanging up.  It was too heavy to put back up for a pic.

Here is before...


I started by lightly sanding it all.  Then I painted it white.


Next, I cut strips out of some burlap I had leftover from a Thanksgiving project. 

(I'm starting to love burlap... is that weird?  It's so useful)


I used Modge Podge to adhere the strips to the mirror

                                    


Tah Dah....


I love the new fresh look!
