Happy Thursday!! I ended up doing a dog leash post a few days ago and wanted to do something for my hubby also to hang his reflector vest, hat, etc. items on that would match the leash holder and since I found this beauty at Goodwill a few weeks ago, guess what!! Yup.... it is now the proud owner of my hubby!!
Here is a shot of it before. There was one piece broken off of it on the mirror part but actually, I liked it so I didn't even attempt to fix it. I just sanded down where the glue was, as they didn't give me that part, and painted over the top. Sorry for the offset picture, was trying to get it laying on the table. Opps ;)
This picture doesn't show the crackle or distressed look and I see I need to clean the mirrors. lol Oh well. Lovin it!!
Have a wonderful day and happy junkin/crafting!!
