How often have you seen one of these ugly vanity trays at garage sales and turned your nose up at it? Me too!!!
Then I thought there must be something of value left in these old gals....
I found one that was really bad, the mirror was scratched and tarnished, the metal starting to rust at the corners, in other words, perfect!
First I took it apart and replaced the back with a new piece of cardboard (covered in a pretty pink chevron fabric). Then I painted the frame a bright pink.
Since the mirror was so bad I thought I would etch an image on it.....a sweet bird! What was once a piece destined for the dumpster is now ready for a second life. I think this is now so pretty and cool!
