Vintage Mirror Makeover

So I decided to keep at least one of the mirrors I found yesterday and paint out one for now. I got busy last night after I put the boys down and busted out my Annie Sloan and CeCe Caldwell paints. Can I tell yahoo much I LOVE these paints y'all!

Before

After! I painted and slightly distressed it in areas so that the original gold would show thru. I used three different colors on this piece.

Painting it really made all of its intricate details pop out.

I just love its old warn chippy feel! Don't worry about the cracks. This piece is solid! The cracks just add more charm to the piece.

I am loving how it turned out and am now thinking the one I am keeping just may get painted as well!

Thanx for stopping by and I hope your Wednesday is going well!:)

  ****This Giveaway is now closed! It closed at midnight on Dec 24! Winner will be announced Dec 29!:)***
  
  
  Hey y'all! Hope your weekend is going well! Can you believe we are only one week out till the big day!? I sure can not. I have been super busy trying to get everything ready. The Nana & The Papa will be here at the end of the week so I have been working non stop on the guest bath. I will share our progress this evening! Until then I have something exciting to share with ya!
  
  

  

  Remember back in November when my family and I  were in Georgia for Thanksgiving and I happened upon a new chalk paint!? I was super excited to share it with y'all and was hoping to get to play with my Destin Gulf but sadly things have been so crazy I have not had a chance. I have though since found a few pics of items painted with CeCe Caldwell paints and they are truly drool worthy! All pics are from CeCe's website.

  CeCe Caldwell paint has been hard to find but recently I heard it was rolling out to a few select distributors across the nation. Luckliy one of those distributors is right here in my area! This prompted me to contact
    Nena who owns NCF Studio of Decorative Art  to see if she would like to team up with me on a giveaway so that y'all could get your hands on some too! I was surprised when she said yes!!

  
  

  

  So who would like to win 3 quarts of CeCe Caldwell paint plus two cans of wax!? I know I sure would but I can't play so whomever wins will have to share with me!;) Just joking.

  

  If you are the winner you will get to pick any three colors of your choice!
  
  
  

  

  
  

  And just in case you are wondering CeCe Caldwell's Paints are earth friendly, all natural chalk and clay based paints designed for use on furniture and home decor items. Her wax is water based and not petroleum based. 

  
  

  The Giveaway will be from Dec 18-Dec 24 and the winner will be announced on Dec 29!

  P.s At the time of the start of this giveaway I was not receiving any reimbursement for my hosting it. I contacted NCF Studio of Decorative Art and not the other way around. My goal was just to bring to my readers a really cool product since I know we love to paint! Since the giveaway has gained momentum as a thank you NCF Studio of Decorative Art will be graciously giving me some of my own CeCe Caldwell's Paints. This will NOT alter my opinion of the product once I get to actually find time to play with the paint! I only give out my HONEST opinion of products that I use so no worries!! If I do not like it trust me you will know!;)
