Great ideas Susan! I haven’t stenciled cork yet…. I’ve been wanting to. 🙂 I have a LOT of that cork board left–maybe I’ll do that next time

thanks for stopping by and taking the time to leave a comment. It’s greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the tip about using T.S.P. for cleaning. The cork board looks so “blah” and you are so clever, how about decopaging or using fabric, or stenciling a design to compliment the new paint? Just a thought to take it to the next level….and you thought you were done. LOL

In reply to Jennie. Gotta love paint, right? I'm stuck on that gray glaze, so the blue was a nice change for me. gail

I’m sitting here laughing, because I have the gold oval frame with an oval mirror. I’ve said to my mom who gave it to me, it looks dirty, but I don’t know what to clean it with and I listed all the things I’ve tried. Her response it’s a patina. Patina of dirt! I think I’ll paint it chocolate milk color. It seems a lot of things around here are being paint that or red.

This is such a smart way to reuse a cool frame! I loved the idea of cutting the cork on the table saw too. Pinned for later 🙂

I have a similar mirror and painted it silver and it hangs over a blue vanity table with silver pulls on the drawers. Looks great.
