What to do with Mirrors

 

I really have a love for mirrors...just as I do for lamps and chandeliers. When ever I see an tossed aside mirror, I know I have to do  something with it...here are just a few samples.  The old mirror at the top had wood pieces attached to the top half, and they made no sense, so I pried them off and silver  leafed the  piece.  Then I decided it still needed more, so I hand  painted the cherubs, ribbons, and roses, aged the entire piece and this remains...although, I still may  add some form of iron or rose work to wind above the top from one post to the next...just haven’t figured that  one out  yet...the  others two pictured below are two old mirrors that speak for themselves.
